Bear Proof Suit

ALBUM OF THE YEAR (that year being 432 B.C.)

About Me

We talk like we grew up in Wisconsin. We think like scientists that get called "mad". We look like what Milwaukee smells like. We play like 1972 smacking 1982 in the head and telling it to get out of it's goddamned bedroom and go see the world.
