The Glass Intact is the second studio album by the Champaign, Illinois band Sarge. It was released in 1998 on Mud Records and runs 39 minutes and 16 seconds. The album helped the band break through, earning lengthy reviews in Salon and the Village Voice, and making Rolling Stone name Sarge a "Hot Band" in 1998 and Spin include them in its "98 for '98" list.

Critics praised it as a high point of ’90s girl-punk. AllMusic’s Jason Ankeny called it an outstanding blend of emotional intensity, melodic aggression, and exuberance, noting Elizabeth Elmore as a gifted songwriter and honest, powerful vocalist. He described the album as a classic rock & roll experience—cathartic, impassioned, and vividly alive. Spin’s Stephanie Zacharek highlighted its riot grrrl influence and explosive mood, saying the album is nervy and seductive with a dark view of the world, yet warmth and light are never far away.

The album credits come from the liner notes.
