Brits. You’ve got your serious ones, like Bush (the band, not the W), and you’ve got your silly ones, like Bearsuit. Fun, catchy, with enough crunching guitar and animal costumes to keep it going. Their shows have just got to be a grand ol’ time. “Chargr” is the new single to be released November 15th.
Sharing the sharing.
Bearsuit and Joanna Newsom are my 2004 musical discoveries. I've been picking up Bearsuit's entire discography after hearing their Cat Spectacular record.
they can be rather a mess live. an endearing mess in silly costumes, but a mess.
Bearsuit = God = Bearsuit
I saw Bearsuit in Brighton last year and they were adorable, exciting, noisy and fun – their gig was up there with Deerhoof and Katastrophe Wife for my favourite of last year.
they remind me a lot of palomar, but a little rougher around the edges.
quite nice.
