Experimental indie rockers Minus the Bear are getting ready to kick off their tour in support of their newest release “Planet of Ice”, which is a fine release I might add. The band continues to unleash catchy tunes, with more of a serious tone. But that’s not a bad Minus the Bear - Band Photothing, in my opinion. As long as the band has been around, most people who are familiar with the band know them for their crazy but likeable sense of humor. Some may think the band is playing a bit safe with their latest effort, but I actually think they are more “musically” focused. I personally don’t get tired of listening to all the tracks on this album. It’s one of those cds for me that stays in the player for a while, and it’s highly refreshing to still come across new releases that have that replayable factor.
