The First Glass Beach Album (stylized in lowercase) is the debut studio album by Seattle–based indie band Glass Beach, which comprises "Classic" J McClendon on vocals, William White on drums, Jonas Newhouse on bass, and Layne Smith on lead guitar. The album was self-released by Glass Beach on 18 May 2019, and re-released on 24 January 2020 upon the band being signed with Run for Cover Records.

The album was worked on for three years, starting from when the band was formed, and the songs in the album went through multiple iterations until they were finished. The album was compared to other artists in the emo genre, as well as punk and chiptune. A remix album, titled alchemist rats beg bashful (remixes), was released in February 2021, including remixes from Bartees Strange, Skylar Spence, Dogleg, Backxwash, Pinkshift, and other artists.
