Minus The Bear are back after a seven-year hiatus to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their classic sophomore album Menos El Oso, with a new expanded reissue out and plans to perform the album in full on tour this fall. Before that though, they warmed up with a last-minute, very intimate hometown show at Seattle's 170-capacity Sunset Tavern on Saturday (8/23).
Jack's Mannequin's debut album Everything in Transit (the one with such nostalgia-inducing songs as "Dark Blue," "The Mixed Tape," and "Holiday From Real") is about to turn 20, and they're giving it a 20th anniversary reissue for the occasion. We have an exclusive "baby blue & bone smash" vinyl variant, limited to 300 copies and available for pre-order in the BV shop while they last.
