MINUS THE BEAR Seattle-based indie-prog quintet Minus the Bear have been churning out catchy albums since 2001’s This Is What I Know About Being Gigantic. 2010’s OMNI saw them take a more electronic and poppy turn, but their live shows remain both groovy and sensual with singer/guitarist Jake Snider and the rest of the boys masterfully recreating their records’ math-rock riffs and Snider’s lyrics about sex and travel and, well, sex, getting everyone in the mood to dance.
