Assembling in late 2003 from the ashes of such Milwaukee-area groups as Twinstar, Radio Tokyo, Mariner and Atascadera, El Oso shed their punk and hardcore skins and began to focus fully on the intricacies of songcraft and detail. Taking cues from the most divergent elements of pop, El Oso weave together simple, stark melodies with a tinkling, underlying gurgle of experimentation. The result is a criminal love affair of instruments, from the evocative guitar lines and expressive vocals to the perfect implementation of electronic beats and piano.

"Meshing indie rock, ..Bends..-era Radiohead, folksy guitars and canyon-wide sing-along choruses... El Oso brandishes a loaded gun. Rating: 4/5".. - ..Aversion.com.. .... "An absolute treasure."..- ..Splendid.. .... "[El Oso is] a band adept at juggling divergent personalities and styles while keeping a keen eye on the final product. Refreshingly, it's all about the songs. And they're ..damn good..."..- ..Dallas Observer.. .... "[One might call it] genre-hopping, but the transitions are so smooth I think genre-sliding is a more appropriate term. Each piece has its charm, sweeping in between shadowy urban-Americana and bright, mid-tempo paced indie rock. El Oso have worked hard to make their music distinct, but by no means have they declared the boundaries of their sound. That indeed, is the sign of a band with good things ahead of them."..- ..Beat the Indie Drum.. .... "If you dig groups like Canyon, Boy’s Life, The Weakerthans and Ben Lee, this’ll be your thing... El Oso is an inspired group to watch out for!"..- ..Indie Workshop.. .... "With conviction in lyrics that bring about imagery comparable to Wilco, [Jim Hanke] has a voice that's real genuine Americana. There are touches of key effects and analog sounding action that really put it over the top."..- ..Kevin Compton, PureVolume.com..
