Minus The Bear

Minus The Bear, Darediablo at London Camden Underworld, Wed 02 Nov

Review by Mike Diver

That Seattle’s Minus The Bear find their Evening’s Highlight status usurped by a four-eyed guitar maverick and a brace of drum-thwacking and organ-mashing comrades is a strange occurrence indeed...»

Camden Underworld

Beneath the Worlds End Pub, right opposite Camden Town tube.

Home of such Drowned in Sound shows as Span + Winnebago Deal + Colour of Fire (March 3rd 2003) Biffy Clyro + Redjetson (March 2003), Kinesis + Reuben + Miss Black America (February 2003) and many more.»

Minus The Bear

Seattle-based dance-punk-rock-ish five-piece with two full-lengths to their name to date (2006).

Minus The Bear are:
Dave Knudson - guitar
Cory Murchy - bass
Jake Snider - vocals, guitar
