История группы:
В то время как многие музыканты за время существования группы то появлялись, то уходили , Babb и Schendel оставались ядром проекта. Оба играют на множестве инструментов, но Babb, главным образом, концентрируется на бас-гитаре и клавишных, в то время как Schendel играет как на клавишных инструментах, так и на различных гитарах и барабанах (до появления постоянного барабанщика Мэтта Мендиэнса во время студийной записи в 2004). Они также поют, хотя есть и другие вокалисты (прежде всего Мишель Янг, Уолтер Мур и Сузи Богдэнович) которые не плохо справились со своими вокальными обязанностями.
Лирически Glass Hammer вдохновлен главным образом их любовью к фэнтезийной литературе (прежде всего Толкиен и К. С. Льюис) и их христианской верой. Последнее нашло своё отражение в концептуальном альбоме 2002 года Lex Rex, в котором описаны некие события произошедшие между римским солдатом и Иисусом из Назарета.
Музыкально их самые очевидные влияния это прежде всего Yes, Kansas, Emerson, Lake & Palmer и в меньшей степени Genesis. В то же время Glass Hammer, по большей части, объединил все эти влияния в характерный собственный стиль.
В 2012 Jon Davison (один из Стеклянных молотков) был отобран Yes в качестве нового солиста. (с) взято из англоязычной Википедии, переведено с помощью ПРОМТа, отредактировано по собственному разумению.
