CD ReviewsYes!!! dredpirateroberts | Lemon Grove, CA | 06/20/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Bear vs. Shark is one of those truly unique bands that transcends genres and smashes convention. Sometimes music gets safe and stale and stagnent. Everyone's just "making" music but no one is "creating" it. Then a band like Bear vs. Shark comes charging out of your speakers and reminds you, "Yesss!!! Wait a minute? What the?...Oh Yeah!!! I remember this feeling! THIS is what I love about music! It's like this; Fugazi hasn't put out a new record since 2001's "The Argument" and though good, I think over all it was laking energy. Hot Water Music really hasn't been the same since joining Epitaph ( let's not even talk about "The New What Next"). Okay, the Mars Volta's pretty rad in a "Pink Floyd on speed" kinda way and Sparta's made one good album (Wiretap...) and one stinker (Porcelain). But let's face it, neither band comes close to how great they were together as At The Drive-In. So there's a huge void in the progressive/hardcore/post-punk/indie/emo/punk rock "scene". Fear not! Bear vs. Shark is here to fill the void with powerful guitars, groovy bass lines, strategic keyboards, punishing drumbeats, sugary vocals, and gravely, bloody screams! Some bands can kick your butt and smash your brains in. Some bands are sweet and poppy and get your booty shakin'. Bear vs. Shark does both (a lot of times all in one song) like no other band I've heard before. If you are a fan of any of the bands I mentioned here, do yourself a favor and buy this album. Then do yourself another favor and buy their new album "Terrorhawk"." 2001-2005 Benjamin Moureau-lucadamo | New York | 12/21/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "One of the best and most underated post-hardcore bands has just broken up; I know I'm not alone in my lamentation. They were full of raw energy, and had enough artistic sensibility to put them in the upper echelon of the monolithic "scene." As incendiary as At the Drive in, with the intellegence of Dredg. Even the less complex tracks are mind-blowing. Try Buses/no buses, Bloodgiver, Kylie, and the my favorite intro track Ma Jolie. If you liked/disliked this review, let me know" Invest! N. L. Arini | Rochester Hills, MI | 04/01/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "If you don't own this album, buy it! A true emerging of a sound that will completely take you away. A mix of Indie, punk, emo, and hardcore makes the dynamics of the album truely magnified. Songs like "Kylie" show the artistic side of the band while still having a very "raw" sound. "Buses/No Buses" and "Michigan" I think really show the intensity of the album, along with the diversity of sounds. The live show is incredible! So, if you get a chance to see a show, I would definitely attend."
