1) Mineral formed in 1994 and like other young bands, they toured constantly, virtually living in their van. The band's first release, the 7 inch "Gloria"/"Parking Lot" 7", was released on Audio Concept by Kerry McDonald from Christie Front Drive (the record was later re-released by Caulfield Records). Through a few rabid fans, that 7" found its way into the hands of crank! and Mineral later decided to release their records on the label.
Their first full length The Power of Failing, was recorded in 6 days in October 1995, followed by a split 7 inch with Jimmy Eat World and Sense Field shortly after when the three bands hit the road together. Since then, Mineral has released another 7 inch ("February"/"MD") on Caulfield and songs on various compilations.
Mineral released their second full length, EndSerenading in 1998 with Mark Trombino at Big Fish Studios in Encinitas, California.
Shortly after completing recording for "EndSerenading", the four members of Mineral decided to go their separate ways. Chris Simpson and Jeremy Gomez formed the Gloria Record. Gabriel Wiley and Scott McCarver were briefly in a band called Imbroco. Gabe is now in Pop Unknown. Scott was last spotted in Austin but as far as we know he doesn't have a steady rock gig these days.
The Gloria Record have split up and Chris Simpson is working on a solo project called Zookeeper.
2) Mineral is a rock band from Armenia with a career spanning over two decades. Their most recent release has been "The Donkey", which was released in 2007.
3) The name Mineral was also used by a band fronted by David Wildman in Boston in the 1980s.

Mineral Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On my lips bright tie fish fly I have not yet arrived how can I not admit I
Need to know you cause I just want to be something more than the mud in your
Eyes I want to be the clay in your hands hey sorrow where are you tomorrow just
Won't be the same without you here I'll wish for shoulders bold and broad to
Bear and strength to hold my head above them cause I just want to be something
More than the mud in your eyes I want to be the clay in your hands cause
The lyrics of Mineral's Gloria are poetic and abstract, leaving some room for interpretation. It seems to tell a story of the singer's struggles with their self-doubt and desire for validation. The opening line describes "a brave morning," suggesting a new day and perhaps a fresh perspective. However, the following line reveals that the singer still feels defeated, indicating that their struggles may not be easily remedied.
The next lines mention a "bright tie" and "fish fly," which are somewhat nonsensical images but could be interpreted as symbols of success or progress. Still, the singer admits to not feeling adequate, saying they "have not yet arrived." This leads into the central theme of the song, which is the singer's longing to be seen as more than "the mud in your eyes." They want to be valued and shaped into something greater, "the clay in your hands."
The final lines of the song repeat "Gloria is silent" several times, possibly suggesting that despite the singer's yearning for recognition, true glory or validation is not something that can necessarily be given or spoken. It's an internal feeling that they must find for themselves.
Overall, Gloria is a song about seeking validation and struggling with one's own self-worth. The abstract imagery used in the lyrics creates a dreamlike, introspective atmosphere that encourages listeners to interpret its meaning in their own way.

Atreverme a ser quien realmente soy.
Vivir, mas alla de existir.
Amarme a mi mismo.
Sin importar lo que diga:
La sociedad.
Mis progenitores.
Gobiernos.
Iglesias.
Profesores.
El amor o querer propio incondicional es probablemente el mayor acto de rebeldia actual, la sociedad no nos ha condicionado para querernos a nosotros mismos, en general, todo lo contrario.
