Maybe we’re still a little cock-drunk off The Turning Gay Issue? Or maybe there’s just a deep, hidden appreciation within every human being for over-abundant chest growth? Whatever the cause, we just can’t seem to lay off fat, gay guys with beards. First, we brought you a probing Q&A with Mr. Bears of Toronto. Then, we broke the story about the alpha-bear ascendancy of Father Damian from Fucked Up. And, now we proudly present a 24k nugget of furry fabulousness by Bearforce1 - “the world’s first true bear band” - breaking shit down like someone stole their picnic basket. Though they appear to be a pastel-and-chino clad Miami brand of bear, the band is one part Belfast, three parts Amsterdam and all really gay. And, by that, we mean European. Go ahead and call our infatuation by whichever name you choose. Man-crush? Bromance? Bone bond? They’re all apt. But, when gold is struck, do you stop digging? No, my little cub, you don’t! With a little effort, you uncover this treasure.

Come on Vice if your talking Bear bands youve totally missed Knifed. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=101049078
Irish Bear Thrash. Nothing scaryier than watching a huge hairy man in bodage gear singing and asking you to spray lube on his ass!!

I just saw the vid of the bears for the first time. All I could think was, “It is about time.” To show real men singing, dancing, being proud of who they are. Not anorexic sterio-types of what men “should” be.
I am a new fan of BEAR FORCE 1!

Double X is a Melbourne radio station (Australia) and we’ve been inundated recently by a sudden wave of requests for Bearforce1. That’s a good promo for the guys !
