All This I Do for Glory is the fifth solo studio album of American bass saxophonist Colin Stetson, released in April 2017 by the label 52 Hz. It is the first of a two-part album series by Stetson that explores two different arcs of the same character. The LP follows a narrative, a doomed love story set during a time between Never Were the Way She Was (2015) and New History Warfare Vol. 1 (2008). All This I Do For Glory differs from Stetson's previous releases due to its emphasis on his breathing techniques in the sound, it contains elements of 1990s experimental music and IDM, and its increased focus on rhythm that makes it more accessible to most listeners. The LP was critically well-received upon its release for Steston's skill of performing many sounds with one instrument, his recording methods, the pacing of the music, and the increased restraint on his maximalist sound.
