The band's profile enjoyed a healthy boost following some favorable media coverage (the band's 2009 split 7" with Woven Bones was featured on Pitchfork) and an endorsement from none other than Iggy Pop, who dropped the band's name in an interview with Urban Outfitters, and it wasn't long before they found themselves on the roster of Sub Pop offshoot Hardly Art. Jacuzzi Boys' sophomore album, Glazin', was released in August of 2011. After spending a bunch of time touring and getting a song in the Seth Rogan movie 50/50, the Boys headed to the Key Club Recording Co. to lay down their third album. The results were mastered by legendary sound wizard Kramer and released to the public as Jacuzzi Boys via Hardly Art in the early autumn of 2013.
After taking a bit of a break, the trio hit the studio in Miami with Torche's Jonathan Nunez in the producer's chair. The resulting batch of back-to-basics garage rockers arrived on the six-song EP Happy Damage, which the band decided to release on its newly formed Mag Mag label in September of 2015. Their next album, the '90s indie rock and grunge-leaning Ping Pong, was recorded in Los Angeles and similarly self-released in late 2016.

Jacuzzi Boys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
watch the sun go down while my face starts to crystallize
you could be the one, you could be the one who'll make me feel all right
take me anywhere, take me anywhere, i wanna be your guy
i can't go through
without you
it's holding me back
glazin' for you
glazin' for you
glazin' for you
(repeat)
oh glaze!
(repeat more)
i'm coated in love
with heat from above
it's all for you
it's all i could do
glazin' for you
well i'm glazin', glazin' for you
yeah i'm glazin', glazin' for you
well i'm glazin' glazin' glazin' for you
yeah i'm glazin'...
The lyrics to Jacuzzi Boys' song "Glazin'" paint a picture of someone basking in the warmth of the sun and being coated in love. The sugar in their hair is melting, and their face is starting to crystallize as they watch the sun go down. They long for someone who will make them feel all right and want to be that person's special someone. The repetition of "glazin' for you" emphasizes the intensity of this desire, almost like a mantra. The singer is essentially saying that they are "glazed," covered in love, and this is all they can do until they are with the one they long for.
The use of the word "glazin'" is interesting in and of itself. It could refer to the process of coating baked goods with a shiny, sugary finish or to someone being covered in a glossy layer of sweat in the heat of the sun. This ambiguity adds depth to the lyrics and makes them more open to interpretation.
