    ///MINUS THE BEAR Press
    "Three years removed from the riveting full-length debut, Highly Refined Pirates, this highly stylized Seattle indie-pop group flaunts substantial glitch-riddled prog-pop on their second Suicide Squeeze full-length. Weaving through territories long established by '70s prog-rockers (Yes, Rush), '80s proto punks (Fugazi), and '90s art rock mind-****s (Jawbox, Joan Of Arc), Minus The Bear invoke the modern love affair between dance driven strategy and lush, Upper Pacific sweater rock. Features appearances by Judah Nagler and Josh Staples (The Velvet Teen), Michael Richardson (The New Trust), and Heather Duby" - insound


    "The perfect mix of catchy melodies, angular textures placed just right and a hearty dose of spaced out atmosphere come together with stellar arrangements" - insound

    "The band has tapped into such an original sound, with their layered, single-note guitar playing, driving drums, and superior bass lines, that not many can argue with them. Oh, and the vocals are pretty much flawless as well. This is a band that continues to completely impress, and has only gotten stronger with each release they have put out." - Rockworld

    "Combining angular rhythms with melodic guitar and spacey atmospherics, Minus the Bear has created an intriguing amalgamation of math-rock, indie-rock, and post-rock." - Adequacy

    "multiple guitars intertwine, the vocalist emotes sincerely, and bubbly electronics dance through the mix, as the songs bend around angular corners, occasionally reaching noisy crescendos but just as often trailing off into silence." - dusted

    ///About WE ARE KNIVES
    With ex-members of SOME DAYS BETTER and the KILLING SPREE how could they fail to be amazing? Shifting time signatures, finger tapping, guitar loops and pounding drum kit, these guys get better with each show. Perhaps the best band from these shores? That wouldnt be an exaggeration. They're ability to play is only matched by their willingness to play. Since only joining forces with ex-Killing Spree drummer, Bernard, they've gone from strength to strength and now there's nothing holding them back. Easily able to give any touring band they've played with a run for their money.
