Minus The Bear: "Throwin' Shapes"

Posted on Monday, March 10, 2008 at 9:00 PM (EDT)

Minus the Bear have released the latest video from their 2007 full length, Planet of Ice.

Currently, the video is only available via MTV which means that it is US-only for the time being. Those who qualify can check it out here.

Totally, completely, one of the best albums of last year which I didn't get to hear until this year.

Just brilliance.

This has nothing to do with the subject, but how fucking awesome is Tom Waits? Unbelievably awesome is how awesome.

Minus the Bear is pretty damn sweet, too.

why does such a great band choose to make such crappy videos?

i actually just got this cd from a friend a couple days ago and i cant get past the annoying electronic beat. the only thing i think when i listen to the cd, so far, is how good they would be without it. maybe ill get past it.

Very glad they released this as a single. Great song. Mixed feelings about the video though. A little too goofy for my tastes.

There's a lot of hate for this video, but I personally think invisible basketball is leaps and bounds more interesting than the NBA. Then again, I see crackheads playing the former on a pretty consistent basis so perhaps I'm biased.

So help me out here.

What's the best thing to drink and the best thing to listen to after you've realized that the person you care about doesn't give a damn.

Sources are reporting that Against Me! frontman Tom Gabel was arrested last night in Tallahassee, Florida on a charge of battery after allegedly "smashing a man's head against the counter of a coffee shop."

Great song, not a fan of Planet of Ice. Minus the Bear could possibly be the most solid/best live band out right now. Im stoked for seeing them next month

just saw these guys at langerado, and it was mindblowingly good. their videos are all psychadelic and rad, and if you don't get it, you probably don't eat enough psychadelic drugs. i love the video for the first track off menos el oso, and also knights
