`Untold Tales - Rare and Previously Unreleased Studio and Live Recordings from 1993-2017' is an upcoming compilation album by American progressive rock band Glass Hammer. To be released on October 20, 2017 to celebrate the band's 25th anniversary, it features previously unreleased recordings originating from 1993 to 2017, and as such features both current and former members of Glass Hammer, including vocals from Walter Moore, Jon Davison, Carl Groves and Susie Bogdanowicz.

The album features eight original songs which had never been recorded or performed before, a re-recording of a previous Glass Hammer song, two covers, and the recording of a live performance; the only previously released material is "Cool Air", a song based on the eponymous short story by H. P. Lovecraft, and originally released as a part of The Stories of H.P. Lovecraft, a 2012 collaborative album by different artists.

Full tracklisting is:

1."Shadows of the Past 2008" (2008 re-recording of "Shadows of the Past" from Journey of the Dunadan)
2."Infusion"
3."Identity Principle"
4."Hold Your Head Up" (Argent cover)
5."Babb's Bach"
6."And Then She Sighed"
7."Eiger Dreams"
8."It's All Too Much" (Beatles cover)
9."Troll"
10. "A Grain of Sand"
11. "Cool Air" (from The Stories of H.P. Lovecraft)
12. "The Impulsive Type"
13."No Man’s Land (Live)" (2017 live performance of "No Man's Land" from Valkyrie)

It can be pre-ordered here, and the band are also offering a hardcover photobook version that looks pretty lavish!
