Let me tell you about this quirky improvisational/experimental rock band from Leicester, England. Aaron Moore (drums, trumpet, vocals), Nick Mott (saxophone, guitar, vocals), Clarence Manuelo (tapes, electronics) and Daniel Padden (keyboarRAB, guitar, clarinet, vocals) are Volcano The Bear.

They formed back in 1995 and released their first album, Vol. One, in 1996, under the label, Volucan. These albums, including their subsequent three albums were released with a limited addition; 25 for their first, 50 for their second, and 20 for their third.

1999 marked the turning point of the banRAB career when their album, The Inhazer Decline, released under United Diaries label hit the underground music scene throughout the world. Their music was compared with great banRAB such as Nurse With Wound, Can, Faust, and The Residents. Once their band was recognized as an avante garde experimental rock band, their album could be found in independently owned music stores.

By the time 2006 rolled around, Volcano The Bear had released numerous CD
 
A good solid review. Upping the album would have been the icing on the cake. As they are English too..yay!

A few samples have been listened too...different to say the least. If I was stoned then maybe, but this is too off whack for me. I'm into experimental music, but it still has to be listenable or cohesive to make a mark.
 
what ive heard of Volcano the Bear is rather awesome.. will pick up the record next time im in the city! need more of this stuff..

Review wise its really good.. i like reviews that contain history and label information as well as a good description of the release.. id be very wary of giving anything 10/10 though, as that suggests its flawless, and very few recorRAB are flawless!
