Minus The Bear Offer Lost Loves On October 7th

MINUS THE BEAR’S LOST LOVES STREAMS IN FULL
VIA PITCHFORK ADVANCE

FALL TOUR KICKS OFF IN TWO WEEKS WITH SOLD OUT SHOWS IN PITTSBURGH AND NEW YORK CITY

“These collection of songs have spent the last few years in detention together for smoking cigarettes at lunch and have bonded to make an album that feels whole from start to finish.” -Noisey

“Smooth, cool, and teeming with atmospheric melody”
– The AV Club on “The Lucky Ones”

Minus The Bear will release their forthcoming full-length Lost Loves on October 7th via Dangerbird Records, but the album is available to stream in full one week early via Pitchfork Advance. The Seattle, WA five-piece will embark upon an intimate club tour later this month in support of the new release as well as the 10th anniversary re-release of their fan favorite EP, They Make Beer Commercials Like This.

The follow up to Infinity Overhead, which reached #31 on the Billboard 200 as Minus The Bear’s highest charting album to date, Lost Loves lives up to its title quite literally as a collection of hard to let go songs pulled from the band’s past seven odd years of writing, recording and releasing records. The band “has made a name for itself creating music as ear-catching as it is resonant with fans of guitar athletics and progressive structures,” wrote Consequence of Sound, and Lost Loves more than delivers on that promise.

Formed in 2001, Minus The Bear is comprised of Dave Knudson (guitar), Jake Snider (vocals, guitar), Erin Tate (drums), Cory Murchy (bass), and Alex Rose (synths, vocals). Over the last 13 years the band have cultivated a large and devoted international following, playing countless sold out venues as they tour the globe over, including North America, Europe, U.K., Japan and Australia. That their past three indie label full-length releases have charted in the top half of the Billboard 200 with steadily increasing success is testament to Minus The Bear’s standing as a musically innovative and beloved group with an unyielding fan base that continues to grow with each album.
