about

"'Luis Buñuel' illustrates the band’s more schizophrenic genre-pairings (though it’s a subtle mental illness), beginning with mournful organ chords and plaintive vocals, only to erupt into a rousing acoustic pop-rock riff replete with semi-soaring dual-vocal chorus, oscillating between the two until wrapping up with a nearly grungy down-picked coda. The song exudes wild abandon and joyful experimentation, music making for the sake of music making, a disposition that thoroughly permeates the rest of the album"
-Dan Sorrells, Delusions of Adequacy

"And that's just the first track!"
-Lattney

Grumpy Bear is the passion project of two guys from a dry river valley in a desert state who were raised on their parents' record collections, '80s pop radio, MTV, and processed food. Grumpy Bear's music is self-recorded, -mixed, and -produced and doesn't fit very well in a specific genre, but indie rock, alt-folk, alternative, new wave, and post-punk are labels that get thrown around a lot. ... more
