Demo Review

Bear Driver
Paws and Claws EP self released

Article written by Paul M - Feb 7, 2010

Bear Driver EP
Bear Driver EP
The Paws and Claws EP was actually self-released last year but as it escaped our notice back then and is still available, I thought I’d give it a very deserved heads-up now. All three tracks are excellent and though the band are from Leeds, they have a distinctly American sound. A Thousand Samurais is soporific lo-fi woozy dreampop that finishes with appropriate oriental key flourishes but it’s second track No Time To Speak that is the pick, with its breathy harmonies and catchy riff; a mere four minutes hardly does the quality songwriting justice. Highly recommended.
