2001-2005.......2005-12-22
raw energy, and had enough artistic sensibility to put them in the upper echelon of the monolithic "scene." As incendiary as At the Drive in, with the intellegence of Dredg. Even the less complex tracks are mind-blowing. Try Buses/no buses, Bloodgiver, Kylie, and the my favorite intro track Ma Jolie.
Yes!!!.......2005-06-20
It's like this; Fugazi hasn't put out a new record since 2001's "The Argument" and though good, I think over all it was laking energy.
Hot Water Music really hasn't been the same since joining Epitaph ( let's not even talk about "The New What Next").
Okay, the Mars Volta's pretty rad in a "Pink Floyd on speed" kinda way and Sparta's made one good album (Wiretap...) and one stinker (Porcelain). But let's face it, neither band comes close to how great they were together as At The Drive-In.
So there's a huge void in the progressive/hardcore/post-punk/indie/emo/punk rock "scene". Fear not! Bear vs. Shark is here to fill the void with powerful guitars, groovy bass lines, strategic keyboards, punishing drumbeats, sugary vocals, and gravely, bloody screams!
Some bands can kick your butt and smash your brains in. Some bands are sweet and poppy and get your booty shakin'. Bear vs. Shark does both (a lot of times all in one song) like no other band I've heard before. If you are a fan of any of the bands I mentioned here, do yourself a favor and buy this album. Then do yourself another favor and buy their new album "Terrorhawk".
Greatest and hardest working band today!.......2005-05-08
The Next Great Thing From the Pig.......2005-03-29
Well, this train wreck can also play! Someone else here already said Cursive meets At the Drive In, but that's right on.
Now, a live performance isn't everything; some of the best live acts to come through the Blind Pig have put out AWFUL CDs (Motion City Soundtrack). But this? Picked it up on the night of its release party and it's still in the rotation. That doesn't happen!
So try it at your own risk, but don't blame me if you become part of the train wreck you only meant to watch. Or, as the man says: if you take me down to that G-dd@man river I will sink right down to the bottom.
