Seattle five piece Minus the Bear have announced the release of their new album, Omni, set for a May 4th release on their new label Dangerbird Records. Produced by Grammy Award winning producer Joe Chiccarelli (The White Stripes, My Morning Jacket), Omni showcases the quintet’s remarkable gift to craft visionary and gripping compositions, revealing new layers in their songwriting as they pursue the next level in their inimitable musical style. 
Omni is a riveting new album of rich soundscapes illustrated by Minus The Bear’s trademark precision and tremendous growth as artistic lyricists and songwriters.
With deep bass lines, mesmerizing syncopated guitar riffs, provocative lyrics and stimulating keyboards, Omni explodes with a bursting energy and unpredictable experimentation. From lead-off single, “My Time,” which explores the band’s widescreen synth rock, to the punch of dueling guitars and keyboards on “The Thief,” from the intense psychedelic sounds of “Animal Backwards” to the driving rock of “Hold Me Down,” Omni continues Minus The Bear’s shape-shifting evolution and is a culmination of their past influences and present inspirations.
Beginning April 21st, Minus the Bear will embark on a 6-week North American tour premiering these new tracks. Dates, along with the record’s tracklisting, to be announced shortly so check back for details.
