Fight!!!," and "Lemurs, Man, Lemurs," it's grueling non to be at least a little bite queer most this Seattle-based quintet.

The band comprised guitar player Dave Knudson, vocalist/ guitarist Jake Snider, drummer Erin Tate, and bassist Cory Murchy. Though the band entered the studio earlier they always played a show, they toured aggressively in sustenance of the EP, then returned to the studio to record book 2002's Highly Refined Pirates, their first full-length album. Both the EP and LP were released by Seattle-based Suicide Squeeze Records.

Finger-tapped guitar riffs sundry with catchy melodies and unexpected time changes keep listeners interested and entertained. Minus the Bear issued two EPs in 2004: Bands Like It When You Yell "Yar!" at Them on Suicide Squeeze and They Make Beer Commericals Like This on Arena Rock.

Madonna - Plans Go Ahead For Madonnas African School

MADONNA has started work on her all-girls school in Malawi, Africa - she has hired four of the country's most prominent citizens to oversee the "multi-million dollar" project.

The pop superstar announced earlier this year (08) she planned to build the educational establishment in Malawi, from where she adopted David Banda in 2006.

She told America's Elle magazine, "I'm buying land and getting permission to build a girl's school. The women will play a big role in the future and rebirth of Malawi."

Now the 4 Minutes star has set her plans in motion by hiring project managers to run the development, which will be on a similar scale to the $40 million (GBP20 million) South African school built by U.S. chatshow host Oprah Winfrey in 2006.

Madonna's lawyer Alan Chinula says, "A task force of four prominent Malawians has already been formed to head the project which will be on the scale of what Oprah Winfrey has in South Africa.

"It is a multi-million dollar project and we will get the real costs in the next two weeks."

The star's plans to build a school are reportedly part of her bid to improve her and husband Guy Richie's relationship with the country, after their adoption of David Banda caused controversy amid claims they had side-stepped Malawi's official adoption process.
