"WHEN local bands sound as good as Metabear,
it's tempting to trap them in a small room,
freeze them in carbonite and make them a
permanent fixture in some downtown club, just
to keep 'em around. Citing influences like the
Velvet Teen, Day One Symphony, Dredg and Audrye
Sessions, this indie rock band knows its way
around a poppy hook, and can also pull off
shameless displays of sweet emotion by balancing
it with dramatic explosions of masculine rock.
They also have a love for synthesizers a la
Death Cab and Stars. Deep down, though, they're
all cuddly bears"
-MetroActive

yo! good to hear from you guys. we're doing well..just writing and playing shows here and there to keep fresh, but mainly working on finishing songs and our press kit. we'll only be playing a few more shows..then we'll be the ones in hibernation for a month or two. i think we actually practice in the same studio now!! when we're ready to come back lets def get some shows goin!! we'll def be out there tryin to support you guys when u return. -jonathan
that's good!! i hope things will work out soon =] i'm not sure if i already told you..but maybe you guys can listen to this band called Idiot Pilot...you might be interested in listening to. i think they're really good...very unique style of music. but that's just me...i love all music! you guys take care and keep in touch with me! muah!
