(1998)"Glyph" is an album released by Floater in May 1995. Produced by the Grammy-nominated Drew Canulette (Nirvana, Soundgarden, Neil Young). "Glyph" received a preliminary Grammy nomination in the category of Best Alternative Performance. Originally, the album was intended to be an
EP featuring leftover songs that never made it onto the Sink album, but eventually a couple more songs were added with some atmospheric tracks that blended the entire disc into one complete seamless audio experience. The album is also the first time that Peter Cornett debuted a track featuring his vocals. "Bottle" would not be his last either, as he again appeared on the Acoustics album. Two covers of Glyph exist: the first cover, which had a very limited release, has the same artwork but the fonts appear to be a white Arial. The second cover, which is the most common, has a yellow/gold font and shows an Egyptian hieroglyph which represents rejoicing, support, or exaltation.Track listing
