OUT NOW: Bear In Heaven Beast Rest Forth Mouth with bonus album Beast Rest Forth Mouth: Remixed.

Bear In Heaven’s second album is an earth-shaker. We recall the volcanic moment it merged from our speakers onto the global sonic freeway, dropping jaws and quickening heartbeats everywhere. Joe, Adam and Jon have been on tour nearly all year long, evolving what it means to listen to the songs of Beast Rest Forth Mouth and to be a Bear In Heaven fan.

Part of that evolution is the creation of a remix album that answers the ten tracks of Beast Rest Forth Mouth. Reinterpreted and resequenced by ten of the band’s and our favorite artists, the result is Beast Rest Forth Mouth: Remixed.

“Now released with a remix album featuring reimaginings of each track by the Field, Studio, and other wayward travelers, this is the rare indie buzz record that’s both sexy and spiritual.” - SPIN [8/10]

The remix album is now packaged with all formats of Beast Rest Forth Mouth. The CD (pictured above) includes an additional disc. The LP includes the remix album in its digital download. The MP3 version you get from any digital store is now 20 tracks. In all cases the price remains the same. Instead of just releasing another record out into the world, we thought we’d keep the Beast Rest Forth Mouth experience intact with this double album combo. Our wish is that Bear In Heaven will find new fans…and that the already-converted will still have access to the new full-length remix album at the same price as a standalone package or download.

“When you start with a good album, the urge to remix is most responsibly met with the question: why? But when you’ve got a great album, the response changes to: why not?” - DROWNED IN SOUND [8/10]
