"Pantsuits....Ugh!" http://www.minusthebear.com/

I'm doing this again because it was ignored on the old board and i've seen others mention them here and there now.

MINUS THE BEAR IS ONE OF THE GREATEST BANDS TO EMERGE FROM SEATTLE....EVER!!

Tapping rhythm guitar players kick ass in my book.

http://www.mattbayles.com/ (homeboy has his own website) plays keys and "the computer" and has done a lot of work with Stone Gossard and Pearl Jam...as well as every other band from Seattle that is still around.

They only have one full length album and it's called "Highly Refined Pirates". I've currently been under the spell of their new EP "They make Beer Commercials Like This". Both are great, but i only know of 1 record store around here that carries their stuff (Vintage Vinyl), so good luck. You probably wont find them in Best Buy or anything like that. Check out indie shops and you'll probably find em. Such a damn good band.

Id say the best place to find MTB stuff is on my computer XD

I have all their full length songs at least, and I even managed to find their EP "Bands Like It When You Yell YARR! at them"

If you see "Highly Refined Pirates," buy two copies and send one to me. These guys rule so hard.

I bought highly refined Pirates.... Man these guys are so good. Thank you to everyone who suggested them. I ended up buying it off itunes because the 9.99 was the cheapest i could find it.

Awesome group. interesting sound. I can't stop listening to them.

thanks
