Glad All Over is the sixth studio album for American alternative rock band The Wallflowers. It was released in October 2012 by Columbia Records, and charted at No. 48.
The band revealed the title of the album on July 12, 2012, and they released their first single, "Reboot the Mission" for free on July 24, 2012.
On October 1, 2012, it was announced on the band's website that "Love Is a Country" would be the second single.
Reception The album received a score of 73 out of 100 from Metacritic, indicating generally positive reviews. In a positive review, AllMusic wrote that "The Wallflowers don't abandon their identity as rock & roll classicists, they just now feel the freedom to mess around, and they've come up with one of their loosest, liveliest records that not-so-coincidentally is one of their best."
Nine years after the release of the record, Jakob Dylan told Uproxx that "it was a contentious record to make" and that tensions within the band led to it being a "disjointed" album. "Simply put, I don’t think the band was getting together that great when we got back together. So, you can hear it in the record," he said.
