PRESS FOR GOLDEN BEAR
"Guitar-swinging, trumpet-blasting orgy of anthemic pop... A blur of frenzied dancing and fist-pumping excitement." -SPIN.COM
"(Golden Bear) avoids the power-pop trap, moving through forests of fuzz with wild, often makeshift instrumentation... Bear with this record and the fruit shall appear." -MAGNET
"Golden Bear take their grizzly moniker seriously." -ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY ONLINE
"Completely original and instantly memorable." -THE ONION
"Endless Potential... Simply Genius." -TINY MIX TAPES
"Songs this strong generate a motion and power of their own, powered by a seemingly endless wellspring of hooks and asides... Golden Bear easily can give the sainted Arcade Fire a run for their money in tunes, energy and sheer exuberance. (****)" -Joe Gross, AUSTIN AMERICAN-STATESMAN
"Joyous." -THE DAILY TEXAN
"A gentle giant, a sonic monster with a hint of a playful side... These guys can turn into something special." - DELUSIONS OF ADEQUACY
"Golden Bear doesn't fit into any mold." -THE AUSTIN CHRONICLE
"The fine-tuned collective spirit behind Golden Bear is apparent from the earliest note of their self-titled debut, warranting love at first listen." - URBAN POLLUTION
"As addictively enjoyable as ice cream and daisies...Painfully lovely tunes." -THE BIG TAKEOVER
"Their guitar-driven spree of irresistible sound is as inclusive as it is ambitious, and one can't help getting wrapped up in their persistently hopeful lyrics... One of the best Austin debuts in a while." -AUSTINSOUND
"To pigeon-hole Golden Bear into linear indie is much too limiting... Golden Bear has set the bar exceptionally high for their next album." -SENTIMENTALIST
"(Golden Bear's) record is overloaded with hip-shaking singalongs and the right amount of classic stylings to make them a present day kick-ass rock band... There isn't a bad tune to be had here." -TRANSFORM
"Near perfect...Learn how to write a song by listening to this album." -AUSTINIST
