Engaging in any form of politics can be a daunting task. Now try creating a music video about Stephen Colbert as profound as the man himself that clocks in at over 4 minutes and you have something to talk about. With its “giant balls” and “truthinizing” there is something very special here…. and far easier to digest than a John Edwards sex tape. Musically, “Stephen Colbert” finds Inu nodding towards the pop sensibilities of Death Cab For Cutie and is as easy to get into, and perhaps just as tempting as a gay bathroom sex scandal is for a politician.
Inu, who are lead by producer/ remixer/ vocalist, Count (DJ Shadow, New Order, Galactic, Radiohead) will release their debut album in June 29th and are kicking it off with “Stephen Colbert”.

Bear considers himself a music lover. Not an afficionade. He is in love with almost every genre of music, but not so much Rap. He loves sad music imbued with nostalgia. He doesn't enjoy bands that sound good on album but somehow forget to play their instruments in a live setting. In fact seeing a band that sucks live makes him never want to listen to music again. He was born in a hick town, then proceeded to move around the country with wanderlust in his eyes. He now resides in the great rain of the North West with the love of his life.
