ANGRY VS THE BEAR is frantic. It’s noisy. It’s fizzy electro pop punk. Despite having only been together just a year and a half, eccentric English electro pop band Angry Vs The Bear have already showcased at the SXSW '09 festival in Texas to a sold out crowd that spilled far into the street and were voted Gibson’s Number 1 Band of the festival. They were then selected to showcase at the CMJ Music Marathon festival in New York in October ’09 and have been invited back to do a further showcase at SXSW ‘10.
They are set to release their first single ‘Show Emotion’ produced by Simon Gogerly (U2, Gwen Stefani) on 1st March 2010 and will be touring the UK for six weeks during February and March.
Recent supports include Florence & The Machine, The Hoosiers, Esser, Dirty Pretty Things, Reverend & The Makers, Red Light Company, Flashguns and Bens Brother.
'SHOW EMOTION' TOUR FEBRUARY 2010! (Please see gig list for full listing)
"Husky whispers of demasking ex-lovers over throbbing synthscapades and eerily hollow male backing vocals would sit neatly next to Human League on a good old fashioned mixtape cassette" (Show Emotion Single Review) Anna Dobbie- clickmusic.com
"Their music bursts with punky energy and irresistible new-wave fizz." Gibson
"Angry vs. The Bear, who sound every bit as good as they look - raucous, glitzy, and unashamedly fun" The Fly Magazine
"Best half-hour set I’ve ever heard. When their album drops, we owe it to our rear ends to buy it." Punkass Blog.com
"Angry Vs The Bear chuck out buckets of bravado.. Definitely one to watch" BBC Manchester
