bears in trees

dirtbag boyband / life's a beach out friday

[bearsintreesofficial]

Hey been listening since 2020 fell off your newer stuff but been revisiting and NGL just five more minutes is like a solid 10/10 album and I think u guys should go on a world tour of it MCR style. Obviously there are The Limitations tho. Also to any younger bears in trees fans out there who r maybe a little sheltered - ur gonna try and abandon ur interests in order to appeal to people who fundamentally don't understand or care for u as ppl. Don't let that happen. Much love etc

just five more minutes two: electric boogaloo 2030 world tour is gonna be for you pal

gay friend groups be like: "rob" "verity" "russ" *guy crying on the floor rocking back and forth*

in 2019, we released an ep called i see blue.

it was about catholic guilt, university house parties, and beginning to understand how you love and want to be loved in return.

it was scrappy. shoddy. naive.

we recorded it in george's nan's bungalow, during reading weeks away from uni when we were meant to be studying.

still! it felt like the first time we really understood how we wanted to sound.

hopeful! overemotional! a little bit absurd, even!

so. we re-recorded it, in secret. we didn't even tell our friends.

we added a new song too - caffeine and bad decisions - that we started writing when we were nineteen. we thought it would be nice to talk to our younger selves. it felt a bit like talking to your big brother.

as of friday, i see blue is out everywhere now.

same songs.

just bigger! better! more bears in more trees.

we're endlessly proud of it, and we hope you enjoy it.

you can listen to i see blue here.

thank you.

bears in trees forever.

I think the defeated “I’m so bloody cold” at the end of I am cold is The thing that just destroyed me about that

I’M BLEEDING WHILE THE CHOIR SINGS “LIBERA ME DOMINE” !! I'M BLEEDING WHILE THE CHOIR SINGS !! WITH A SMILE ON MY FACE :D !!

all we've ever learnt from this is we've learnt nothing at all 🌊

@bearsintreesofficial

edit: list of references/meaning below for funsies:

- smashed glass for starting fires (i’ve been smashing glasses)

- scissors and medication for i am cold (i cut my hair and i stopped my meds)

- coffee mug for don’t drink coffee ofc

- crickets for caffeine & bad decisions (we’re just crickets, forgettable people)

- wave pattern in the background for life’s a beach, as well as fire pattern both for starting fires and life’s a beach

- rosary specifically for nights like these, but more generally representing the religious theming in the ep

- the faces reflected in the broken glass are 2019 i see blue era bears in trees!

- the way current bears in trees are sat mimics this photo from the 2019 isb photoshoots!

you can really hear the weight of seven years of all boys catholic school in i see blue huh

[zekethefightingnighthawk]

caffeine and bad decisions… caffeine and bad decisions save me…

[intergalacticfrog]

i didn't think it was possible for i am cold by bears in trees to get any better but alas! here we are. need it injected into my veins NOW

[stars4roryy]

success is unlikely but monumental let's try it

[maybenexttonormal]
