Back in 2005, Seattle quintet Minus the Bear were riding the wave of a swift upward trajectory with their blend of '90s mathrock fretboard savvy, early '00s electro-indie textural depth, and the wistful melodicism of the more mature strain of Midwest emo. So it was an interesting time for the band to undergo a stylistic sea change. Looking beyond their fellow guitar slingers, Minus the Bear instead found inspiration in the more adventurous pop producers of the era and went full steam ahead with a revamped sound of glitchy guitar loops, modern R&B rhythms, and swirling electronic tapestries on their 2005 sophomore album Menos el Oso. The stylistic shift was a gamble in the waning years of indie rock orthodoxy, but the risk paid off and Minus the Bear's popularity exploded. Twenty years later, Menos el Oso still sounds fresh and vibrant while simultaneously capturing the essence of a specific era where the rules and formulas of guitar-forward music were breaking down. To celebrate the album's anniversary, Suicide Squeeze Records and Minus the Bear are offering up Menos el Oso (Deluxe 20th Anniversary Edition), featuring an expanded tracklist including five previously unreleased demos.

On her forthcoming CiCi album, Ciara reclaims her narrative with clarity, confidence, and a full-spectrum sonic experience that marks her most dynamic era yet. The project - which includes standout singles like "Ecstasy," "How We Roll," "Wassup," and "Run It Up" - effortlessly bridges her legacy in R&B and pop with fresh, future-forward production and unapologetic storytelling. The CiCi era isn't just a return - it's a reinvention. Across the album, Ciara blends sultry grooves, empowering anthems, and melodic dance records that reflect both her personal evolution and artistic growth. Each track reflects a refined sense of purpose: she knows exactly what she wants to say and how she wants to say it. Whether celebrating freedom, sensuality, or power, CiCi is an album about owning your voice, your joy, and your journey. Over the last two decades, Ciara has consistently pushed culture forward - from setting dance floors ablaze with iconic choreography to defining the sound of modern R&B-pop. With CiCi, she not only reintroduces herself to a new generation, but also strengthens the bond with her core audience, continuing to build an intergenerational community of fans who ride with her every evolution. It's bold. It's intimate. It's CiCi - raw, radiant, and ready to reign.
