Their third and final studio album Double Coda was released on New West Records in November 2018.

The Glands' unique sounds recalled a variety of influences, including the Kinks, the Who, and The Rolling Stones.

The song "Livin' Was Easy" was featured in the DVD Let America Laugh by comedian David Cross.

The band reunited for a brief east coast tour in late 2011, playing several dates with Yo La Tengo.

Ross Shapiro, singer, guitarist, and founding member of The Glands, died in March 2016 aged 53 of lung cancer.
