Minus The Bear - Toska Lyrics

"Toska - noun /ˈtō-skə/ - Russian word roughly translated as sadness, melancholia, lugubriousness. No single word in English renders all the shades of toska. At its deepest and most painful, it is a sensation of great spiritual anguish, often without any specific cause."

Scroll down to whaas11's comment on how minus the bear hasn't made a decent album since before menos El oso. Truest words ever said.

Jus sayin homie, they made pure genius back then

+Deicide Miller Planet of Ice, Omni, and Infinity Overhead are all truly good albums in my opinion. I honestly prefer those albums over the older ones.

HA this is the SHIZNIT!

ha I know right!?

You think so? I guess a lot of their fans share that view. I don't know. I like Highly Refined, but compositionally it always struck me as kinda amateur-ish. I think they got a lot better.

Minus was better in their Highly Refined stage.

now will be my fall album <3 <3

haha you can put perspective on anything by saying "At least it's not 'If not now when?'. Not to say I hated innw, but it was dissapointing. I like a lot of tracks on Infinity over head, but I do feel like they're a little to simple, and the lyrics are. . . well he's trying.

ahahahah thats awesome, I agree about "If not now when?" how are you liking the new stuff for both Incubus and MTB ?

i get really really high to this song

well i guess thts true. lol.

your name is the most fabulasnesnesnes

idk how its random... they make the same kinda chilling music

no its just like how random it was to bring up incubus. like y that band? xD

lol? its totally relevant... talkin about bands that change up their music..keep up

lol why the fuck are you comparing minus the bear to incubus? like thats just sooo random. XD not tryin to be mean or anything but thats just out of the marble circle. and yes...this is an amazing albumn. :D

Hey man, don't be hating on If Not Now, When?, it's a great album, just takes some adjusting to.

I put the headphones on my dogs head and he starts head bobbing. To good.

Same thing happened to me. Thank you, fringe radio stations.

agreed.

Heard this on my local radio station and I had to look it up. This is one great song.

I've burned this whold release into my mind. Everywhere I go I can press play and my brain will play any song at any time. I even play them in my sleep.

toska > any other band in the world

i cant beleive ppl are hating on this album..... ITS AMAZING.... its not like the new incubus wheres its like totally a diff genre....

I loved this album, but MTB PLEASE PLEASE go back to prog if u guys make another album

Well i'm seeing them soon so i guess ill be able to judge that. I mean their spotify acoustic session sounded great to me. I think their best setlist was the anniversary tour. They really killed HRP. I also liked that they did the Giagantic ep songs before in addition to HRP.

See i agree with you on that... but i wouldn't say they suck... just very different. Planet of Ice and Menos el oso were undeniably their best albums and its hard to really live up to those albums without changing their sound. You gotta see em live too though... their omni songs were some of my favorite songs live.

This explains so much. So wait why do you talk like you remember those two eps cause you would be like 5 yrs old.

what i said actually is not improper use of that word, what he was saying didn't make any sense, therefore not intelligible. Reasoning doesn't necessarily relate to intellect, but more to the communication/explanation of what is being said. So if you want to make yourself look like a ass, and a bigot for that matter... be my guest.

How is your comment supposed to speculation, you were just insulting them with misinformation. If you don't like the song actually give an intelligible answer with actual factual reasoning... also dido what Samus5164 said. Don't start accusing them as sounding like pretentious 11th graders when you speak about as maturely as an 11 yr old lol

Any music-related "I liked x before y" statement is obnoxious and pretentious in itself.

I'm confused, how do they listen to the "suits around them" if they've released all their albums with independent labels, and all of those (with the exception of omni) have been produced by matt bayles, their orginal keyboardist. Also on the drugs, i'm sure they do them or have done them, but your just a asshole for accusing them of doing it to excess, and also completely insensitive the people who have had trouble with addiction, or have died from it. Go fuck yourself

Favorite. maybe all time mtb favorite

@lindemikko Whose comment to which are you referring to??

less treble more bass on this video would be better

This band hasn't made a good song since those two EPs that came out before Highly Refined Pirates.

You have to be an idiot to really think that.

Bought the album today, can't stop listening! MTB3
Come to Corpus Christi, TX!

I'm in love with this track. I'm trying to give the rest of the album a chance before I start playing this for hours on repeat. I'm failing.

Wow, that sucked worst than omni. Mtb is Shitty now.

fantastic perfect best album i love minus

Toska (Russian) – “No single word in English renders all the shades of toska. At its deepest and most painful, it is a sensation of great spiritual anguish, often without any specific cause. At less morbid levels it is a dull ache of the soul, a longing with nothing to long for, a sick pining, a vague restlessness, mental throes, yearning. In particular cases it may be the desire for somebody of something specific, nostalgia, love-sickness. At the lowest level it grades into ennui, boredom.”

It makes this song, best bridge yet-
