FAN "VIDEO"??/

hey so during one of my many daily vanity searches the other day i came across this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1RVa8B1khg


made by youtube user "israeliheart," the clip is just bastards with broken heart wallpaper throughout. there's technically no actual video. it's actually pretty weird. he/she (going with she here, but i can have an open mind) has made over 200 other clips like it for other songs. but israeliheart, if you are out there, thank you for this. real talk. in fact, hit us up and we'll send you a CD -- all the way to israel, if that's where you're at -- as a token of our gratitude.

PRessbeAR

The Slothbear is a wonderful animal and so it's only fitting that a band named after such an awesome creature should, too, be awesome. NYC's Slothbear make noisy, caustic pop songs with more catchiness – and treble – than you could shake a stick at. Since yesterday I've been pretty stuck on them and songs like "The Exceptional Bastards" and "You Make Me Choose You" are so instantly infectious and, well, I don't know, they're just really really good. I wouldn't be surprised if Slothbear were picked up by Siltbreeze in some time soon.

FOX NEWS BREAK -- NEW ADVENTURES in HiFi AKA under THE BEAR under THE SLoth AKA SEX RENEGADES(the true story)

KKKKKKWWEEEOOWWWSHHHHHHHH




" SLOTHBEAR " will begin recording whatever the next thing they do ends up being this Friday, effectively christening doug's new Can't Commit Studios (alt title- GAAAHHD DYEHHHMIT Studios), which he built with his own two bare hands out of a single tree log. We berz are so excited about our new songs that we may even make you pay to hear them this time. It could be an album, and EP, a single, or nothing at all (wouldn't be shocked), but its COMING and here are just a few titles that may be on it:

no dialogue
killed by cars
fluoxetine
wide berth
baby i aint no killa
ghost indians
la da da
olio
djam
the words will come
pa kids
bam bam
little qid
the proof will do me in
bear today, gone tomorrow
another josh song that doesn't have a working title
fa la la


maybe some others. many of these have been played out before and hypothetically speaking, if we had fans, they would probably recognize a few. and of course, ya can't rule out the old hits...

MOVING ON

Our EP is freely available on myspace, lastfm, some still active link on the Animal Collective message board, and from our swollen, bleeding hands to your mailbox. But now you can also download it for free here from the nice folk(s) at RACK AND ROOOIN records. Basically, if you don't have that album by now, you are a fucking asshole !~!!

slothbear also has a SEMINAR this thursday with the peter tabler big whigs.

context:

To Whom It May Concern,

All Tabler Building Staff and Campus Dining staff have been informed to immediately contact University Police if approached by any member of the Sloth Bear band during a future Open Mic. Any questions please feel free in contacting me.

Thank You,
