The Bear Quartet is an indie rock group from Luleå in northern Sweden. They have been playing since 1989 and have been making records at a steady rate since 1992, often to critical acclaim but never resulting in large sales.
The Bear Quartet are Mattias Alkberg on vocals and guitar, Jari Haapalainen on guitar, Peter Nuottaniemi on bass guitar, Jejo Perkovic on drums and Carl Olsson on keyboards. Peter and Mattias write the lyrics, while Mattias, Jari and Carl write the music.
The Bear Quartet have spawned many side projects. Mattias sings and plays in Mattias Alkberg BD, whose debut album Tunaskolan released in 2004 was very well received by the critics and audience. As of 2006, they have released three albums. Their music can be described as classic punk/new wave in Swedish, with influences such as Tant Strul and Imperiet, both of which they have recorded cover songs of. Jari produces lots of other artists, such as Nicolai Dunger, Ed Harcourt, Camera Obscura, Kristofer Åström, The Concretes and Frida Hyvönen, and used to play with Maria from The Concretes in Heikki. Carl has Paddington DC, some kind of noise electro pop.
The name The Bear Quartet is taken from Klas Östergren’s novel Gentlemen. The album titles follow an interesting naming scheme: every title is two words, of which the first ends with a «y».
All albums are released on Skellefteå-based independent label A West Side Fabrication.

Märkligt att Sweet Beef låter mer som Sabbath Bloody Sabbath än Sweet Leaf. Fast det kanske inte ens är tänkt att man ska dra Black Sabbath-paralleller?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S59FUNCRow8&feature=related This excites me about the new album :D Carrying on the dark sound of Eternity but returning to a more accessible pop/rock sound. AND it sounds different from any other album they've made!

De kommer nog aldrig att toppa Eternity Now. Speciellt inte efter ha hört de nya låtarna, helt gudomliga live igår dock.

DÅ: Under slutet av nittiotalet och början av 2000-talet fanns en sajt vid namn skivsamling.nu. Detta var inte bara ett nördigt skivsamlarställe utan också hemvist för det roligaste musikdiskussionsforumet i stan. Sen försvann skivsamling.nu p.g.a. olika slags datahaverier. Åren gick, många gjorde försök att engagera sig på andra musikforum men något fattades och med jämna mellanrum kunde man läsa inlägg där före detta skivsamling.nu-medlemmar skrev och berättade om hur mycket man saknade sin gamla sajt och hur hemsk och kall världen kändes utan den. NU: En ny diskussionsgrupp med det fyndiga namnet skivsamling.nu startar på last.fm. Några av de gamla skivsamling.nu-medlemmarna har redan hittat dit men vi vill fortfarande bli fler och jakten går därför vidare på nya musiknördar som inte tycker att livet är komplett utan ett riktigt bra diskussionsforum. ALLTSÅ: Anslut dig till vår glada grupp.
