Artist Watch: Minus the Bear


It's been a couple years since Minus the Bear, the Seattle-based indie rock quintet, has released anything of note. After Planet of Ice came out, fans have only been able to snag copies of their Acoustics EP, which provides the simple novelty of hearing acoustic versions of old songs while adding in one original entitled "Guns & Ammo," but isn't exactly what I would call an exciting, worthwhile release. While I'm at it, I'll go ahead and say that Planet of Ice didn't really seem all that great either.

So, you may be wondering why I'm sitting here, typing away about a band that has been letting me down for a couple years now. Well, it's because the band is gearing up for another release, and recently released some cool sounding viral clips that make it seem like Minus the Bear's upcoming release is going to be a bit of a return to form. But, don't just let me be the judge of that, go ahead and check the videos below and hear for yourself.
