Life Is Not a Lesson is the second studio album by American rock musical project Glitterer, which was at the time the solo project of Ned Russin of the band Title Fight.

The album has received positive reviews from critics and consists of shoegaze,[5][6] grunge,[5] and hardcore punk.

[6] Dave Beech of Clash Music scored this album a 7 out of 10, calling the music, "intense, claustrophobic and often cathartic".

[5] In Kerrang!, Mischa Pearlman gave Life Is Not a Lesson a 3 out of 5, stating that the music act shows promise, but that this album needs more length and variation.

[6] Spin's Danielle Chelosky characterized this release as "uncomfortable and eccentric" as well as "a hidden opportunity to start a conversation, and to invite others to inhabit Russin's space".
