Glory is the second studio album by Australian rock band Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers. It was announced on 27 August 2025, alongside single "Mother" and was released on 7 November 2025. [2] Upon announcement, the album was described as "an exploration of confidence, disgust, infatuation, and power set against indie rock you can strut to." [1]

Contents

The album was promoted with release events in Melbourne, Sydney and Canberra over 7–9 November 2025. [6]

The album will be supported by the eight-date Australian and New Zealand Glory Album Tour in May 2026. [7]

Critical reception

Sian Cain from The Guardian said "Glory sounds a lot grander than anything they've done before; as punchy and contagious as the best of I Love You, but with a darker, synthy sound." [8]

Fem Music felt that "Glory captures a band fully in command of their identity. (Producer Catherine) Marks and the band spent five intensive weeks at a remote studio in New South Wales perfecting their vision — experimenting freely, throwing out what didn't fit, and arriving at the truest version of their sound." [9]

Mary Varvaris from The Music said "Glory is an album brimming with empowering energy that explores themes of infatuation, disgust and self-acceptance. Musically, the songs are widescreen indie-rock you can strut to, sing along to and cry to. It proudly captures messy nights out, mascara smeared, and a phone battery on 1%. It's eye rolls and Cher Horowitz-level sass." [10]

Paul Cashmore from Noise11 called it their "most self-assured, emotionally charged and musically adventurous work to date." [6]
