	CDfuse.com - Minus the Bear - indie - Seattle, Wa
		They sing about kickin’ it like wild donkeys” For anyone cares, Minus the Bear might be the best band in the world, but the full scope of band’s achievements, for the most part, seem to have fallen on deaf ears in favor of stabs at one-dimensional song titles.
		Minus The Bear’s days of writing "songs about drinking and girls" are done and gone—instead replaced by tales of money as metaphor, stripped innocence and lovelorn remembrance.
		In the simplest terms, song titles are not the focus of Minus The Bear; it’s the music, it’s always been so.With their new album, Menos El Oso, The Bear reinforce that focus and expand on it, ushering richer narratives, refined production, and emotional breadth into their sound.

		Since then, Minus the Bear has spent its time touring with Appleseed Cast, Rocky Votolato and Crystal Skulls, rampaging through South by Southwest, visiting Canada, and touring with Thursday all across the USA.
		Minus the Bear’s success with the 21-and-up crowd has been apparent for some time, but this has been the year that the band has broken wide open with a younger audience.
		And though many of the bands enjoying success with the Bamboozle crowd are barely older than the audiences themselves, the members of Minus the Bear are for the most part on their second (and third, and fourth…) tours of duties in bands making an impact.

	Amazon.com: Menos el Oso: Music: Minus the Bear (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		A truly unique incarnation this Minus The Bear is. I was one of the many fans who initially looked into this band for the sheer fact that Dave Knudson of Botch fame was handling guitar duties.
		All these things define exactly what Minus The Bear is all about, and much in the tradition of their previous works (notably 2002's "Highly Refined Pirates" full length and 2004's "They Make Beer Commercials Like This" EP), MTB have crafted any extremely gratifying listen with their self-titled album "Menos El Eso".
		Unfortunately for me, my main interest in Minus the Bear was their brilliant rythmic interplay and this album is just lacking this.

	Minus The Bear « Interview « Recoil Magazine
		Not to take anything away from the hardships Minus The Bear has faced in their five-year career as an independent band, but taking the summers and winters off from touring to relax at home has to be nice.
		The band has more than given back, through both their rigorous touring this past spring with Thursday on the Shirts for a Cure tour (benefiting cancer research) and their heavy tour schedule coming up this fall (joining forces with Music For America, a non-profit voter registration organization).
		Not a band to resist enjoying the fruits of their labor, but also not one known to overindulge, Minus The Bear makes the term “working rock band” actually work.

		Before I delve into the mass popularity that is Minus The Bear, I must take a moment to appreciate the venue that is The Club@ Firestone.
		With multiple rooms, an upstairs white bar with balconies that overlook the stage, and an outdoor patio complete with a fountain and a bamboo fence, it is by far the coolest and most comfortable concert venue in Orlando.
		For a pre-Halloween show, it was an eclectic bill- topped by Minus The Bear- that included an instrumental band from Chicago (The Russian Circles), a hard-hitting Indie trio (The Velvet Teen) and an independent rapper (P.O.S.

		When asked, the boys of Minus the Bear reflect on their name as an inside joke.
		Famous for their unusual way with words — the band boasts song titles like “Lemurs, Man, Lemurs” and “Thanks for the Killer Game of Crisco Twister” — Minus the Bear is a more than appropriate moniker for a group that intertwines plunky bass and metal guitar licks over a backdrop of arithmetic beats and keyboards.
		The offspring of several successful Northwest acts (Kill Sadie, Botch and Sharks Keep Moving), Minus the Bear marks the return of the Seattle super group.

	Amazon.com: Highly Refined Pirates: Music: Minus the Bear (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Minus the Bear is filled with amazingly catchy, and skillful, guitar riffs, funktastic bass lines, complex drumming, nice elemental prog-inspired keyboards and a great singer who is also is an amazing lyricist.
		I especially recommend this as a first-time album if you have heard of Minus the Bear and are looking to give them a go...MTB definitely has their own style and the best of it comes out in Highly Refined Pirates.
		But the greatest thing about this Minus the Bear album is that it doesn't let its sonic complexity go to its head.

		This leaves us with supergroup-on-the-rise Minus the Bear’s set, which was thoroughly excellent.
		Not so poppy as to piss off the math-rock apprentices, nor too brainy to confound the masses at large, Minus the Bear take the perfect pinch of both styles and create memorable, monolithic tunes that you’ll find yourself humming at the oddest times.
		Grizzly Bear's Ed Droste probably didn't even know that he'd be the subject of Jennifer Kelly's final Splendid interview...

	themusicedge.com :: Minus the Bear (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Though mainly described as an indie rock outfit on their own website, I’d venture to give Minus The Bear the post-hardcore/prog-rock tag; the latter genre which in most recent months has regained certain status thanks to the increasing popularity and hip value of the afro freaks from The Mars Volta.
		Their second full-length Menos El Oso (which obviously means Minus The Bear in Spanish) has got such a unique, clean and intimate sound I can only hold my jaw shut in sheer delight.
		Let’s get this clear though, we ain’t talking Edie Brickel kind of relaxation here, what Minus The Bear is doing is certainly light years away from that sleep inducing sound but the distance that this band keeps from most of its peers can also only be perceived through the use of some very powerful telescopes.

	Guitar Player - Minus the Bear
		Sure, Minus the Bear is a two-guitar band from Seattle that favors drop-D tunings, but don’t think for a second that they’re something resembling a grunge relic.
		The reason could be Minus the Bear’s singular indie/prog sound—a mixture of the Police’s syncopated pop, electronic elements á la Tortoise, textural fly-bys, and tricky two-hand tapping provided by Snider’s co-guitarist, Dave Knudson.
		But Minus the Bear’s latest release, Menos el Oso [Suicide Squeeze], actually features less of Knudson’s trademark tapping than previous albums, due to the two guitarists’ latest fetish—live sampling.

	CANOE -- JAM! Music - Artists - Minus the Bear: Minus the Bear equals rock
		At its worst, math rock has sometimes, and perhaps unsurprisingly, been called "formulaic." But Minus the Bear manages to transcend that, infusing an experimental, jazz-like approach to rock with its shimmering guitars, melodies drenched in reverb and Jake Snider's distinct vocals.
		With a name like "Minus" the Bear, however, it's tough to escape math metaphors when talking about the band.
		With two albums to Minus the Bear's credit, 2002's Highly Refined Pirates and last year's Menos el Oso ("Minus the Bear" in Spanish), Murchy says they seldom find themselves at home much, anyway - they're almost constantly touring.

	DECAPOLIS : Minus the Bear - Menos el Oso
		Menos El Oso (“Minus the Bear” in Spanish) is clearly an attempt to shed the silliness that had previously been associated with the bands efforts while still keeping their unique sound intact.
		The band is at their best when they are rocking out and showcasing their impressive talent.
		Menos El Oso is a bit inconsistent in spots, but Minus the Bear have created a unique sound that is sure to impress new listeners and please fans of their previous work.
