Hence, 14 Iced Bears were seen in a dim light by those who followed, say, the early Primal Scream with their terse jangle psychedelia, or Loop with their blasted, burnt out sun spiral noise, although really they made records as good if not better than either.
And really 14 Iced Bears were always at their finest when they were slowed down to a crawl, as they showed on the highlights of their eponymous debut album.
14 Iced Bears played super-melodic pop-rock which had both the childlike giddy eccentricity of their contemporaries the Pastels (not to mention all sorts of later groups, particularly Beat Happening and much of the K Records roster) and the dirty guitar-rock of the Velvet Underground.

The early 14 Iced Bears records were a racket; the sounds of people trying to make sense of the world and seeing no sense in that world and so inventing one for themselves.
It seemed natural that 14 Iced Bears should release a single on Sarah records because Sarah records was about as unfashionable as you got at the tail of the '80s also.
14 Iced Bears always sounded like a bunch of ragged minstrels desperate to leave the planet; if Loop could effortlessly ascend to the heavens with a profound darkness of soul, then 14 Iced Bears reminded you that you were human, told you that those aches inside were for real.

14 Iced Bears were a slightly later product of this welcome renaissance, emerging in South London in 1985 with a terrific sound that merged pure fuzz-pop with more chaotic punk-derived inclinations.
Over the course of seven years the band's lineup changed constantly, with singer/songwriter/guitarist Rob Sekula and rhythm guitarist Kevin Canham guiding the tiller over the course of two albums -- 14 Iced Bears in 1998 and Wonder in '91 -- and a handful of singles of jagged but jangly guitar pop.
In 2001, the noble Bay Area indie pop label Slumberland memorialized the Bears with an exhaustive collection of the band's early recordings.

 Review of Easter Upstairs At The Garage July 13th 2002
Back in the mists of time, rummaging in the 7”s box in Backs records, Kitten came across a delicious slice of vinyl wrapped in a pink and white striped paper bag which turned out to be ‘Inside’ by 14 Iced Bears.
It’s ‘Balloon Song’ chugging along in a pleasing countried up incarnation, I was trying not to mention 14 Iced Bears, but if you’re going to play old songs like this I can’t help it.
It’s a reminder of what lovely, simple touching songs 14 Iced Bears were capable of.

If Echo & the Bunnymen were neo-psychedelia's Doors and the Teardrop Explodes its Pink Floyd, then 14 Iced Bears were the movement's 13th Floor Elevators -- maddeningly erratic but occasionally brilliant, with a reach that far exceeded their grasp.
Torn between their primitive C-86 origins, their cosmic ambitions, and a U.K. indie scene mad for Madchester, 14 Iced Bears never found a comfort zone.
Compiling 20 tracks including their eponymous 1988 debut LP and a pair of subsequent singles, Let the Breeze Open Our Hearts spans only about a year of activity but sounds like the work of several different bands, none of whom defined a distinct identity.
