If musicians from the Dark Ages had access to mind altering drugs like LSD or psylocibin, they would sound like Volcano The Bear and this short 7" single is proof. That People Don't Know They Are Monsters has distinctive medieval sound with the instruments sounding completely outdated, old and slightly out of tune. The melodies used either have that ominous ritualistic vibe or that errant troubadour melancholia. But this sound is then warped and twisted into an effervescent tune which transgresses time and all musical rules. Bow Heavier My Lord might sound completely different, but it could still be considered to have been composed over seven hundred years ago. Everything this band releases is a strange, colorful and eye-opening experience. if you are new to the Bears, this is a great and inexpensive place to start. What are you waiting for? Hurry up before all 500 copies of this thing are sold.
