...SIŁA I PIĘKNO MUZYKI TKWIĄ W JEJ RÓŻNORODNOŚCI..
..::OPIS::..
During its initial four-year existence, The Bears lived a pop music lifetime. It enjoyed an auspicious, boisterous beginning in 1985 as the next big thing. The buzz was considerable. Sold-out gigs worldwide, two studio albums and multiple media blitzes pointed to a long-term future. But by 1988, disillusion stemming from punctured promises and evaporating support—not to mention a serious dose of bad luck—sealed the band's fate.
Typical music industry shenanigans, some might say. But The Bears were supposed to be different. After all, this was a band with a serious pedigree. It was comprised of guitarist-vocalist Adrian Belew, formerly of King Crimson, Talking Heads and Frank Zappa; and drummer Chris "Deathy" Arduser, guitarist-vocalist Rob Fetters and bassist Bob Nyswonger—three quarters of the Raisins, a popular, renowned act that enjoyed several regional hits across America.
The Bears crafted eclectic, intelligent pop songs full of gorgeous harmonies, inventive lyrics and first-rate musicianship. The Cincinnati, Ohio-based act struck a rare balance between the approachable and artistic. Further, it was a band with a plan. It predicted its willingness to work incessantly and do anything but compromise the music could help it win a global audience. What it couldn't predict was the abrupt end of the early-to-mid-'80s pop renaissance that saw the likes of Laurie Anderson, Joe Jackson and XTC scoring hits with left-of-center material. Nor could it predict its record label going under in the midst of the tour for its second album. And with Belew simultaneously being courted as David Bowie's musical director and by Atlantic Records for a solo deal, the group's dissolution became inevitable—though they all remained the best of friends...
