Minus The Bear has premiered their new track "Lonely
Gun" on RollingStone.com. The song, which Rolling Stone exclaimed
"packs a punch with charging, acrobatic-sounding guitars woven through a
pop-friendly chorus, is from the band's forthcoming album, Infinity
Overhead, due August 28 on Dangerbird
Records.
"Lonely Gun," as singer/guitarist Jake
Snider remarks, "came out of a deep depression. I was
thinking about how lonely an unused gun must be, its purpose unfulfilled,
like a loveless relationship. The only way to allow its purpose is to hold it
- to use it."
For the Seattle-based band's fifth record, they reunited
with longtime producer and former founding member Matt Bayles
(Mastodon, Isis, Cursive). The LP is a guitar-laden 10-track album
that is as heavy on the band's trademark technicality as it is on pop
songcraft.
Last week, Minus The Bear gave the first glimpse into Infinity
Ovehead with an album trailer. The teaser video, featuring the
new track "Diamond Lightning" can be watched
