“It kicks in with a big swaggering blues riff and burns into a grungy alt-rock descending chord sequence for the chorus. It’s hooky as hell” - Christopher Nosnibor (Aural Aggravation)

Its all Indie review of Space Odyssey

19/05/2020


"Big and bold synth laced soundscapes with symphonic guitar tones that sound like they can soundtrack a thriller at the cinema, fast paced drums that matches our heartbeat and dominating vocals that you can't help but shout back at when you're listening to it."
Wonderful review of Space Odyssey from IT'S ALL INDIE

Interviews and reviews

12/05/2020


We sat down with The Uncarved Block and also The Other Side reviews for interviews and reviews of our debut single. check out the interviews in full in the links below.

"We have a lot more focus on a modern sound, that doesn’t mean copying what’s currently popular, just not trying to do what’s been done before" - The Uncarved Block

"Space Odyssey" by The Slow Cooked Bears is a sonic tune that begins with swirling guitar tones and a driving bass line. In an instant we are "GO!" - The Uncarved Block


"Bright, shiny and (almost) brand new, The Slow Cooked Bears are the latest symphonic alternative rock band from London. Reminiscent of the iconic David Bowie" - The Other Side Reviews

Coronavirus update

26/03/2020


We hope you are all holding up well and staying safe at this unprecedented time in all our lives.
Just before the Coronavirus outbreak, we actually had our own crisis and our wonderful bassist Hyunsu was given some shocking news. Luckily she’s hard as nails and it’s our great pleasure to say after surgery, she’s well on the way to making a full recovery.

We were just getting ready to come back and play some exciting shows and release our debut single when this virus decided to show up and change everyone’s lives dramatically. Sadly all of our current gigs are obviously postponed, on hold or cancelled.

However, if we can, we are going to push ahead and release our debut single in the coming weeks with loads of exciting content we recorded in January and February.

Please keep your eyes peeled for a release date and most of all stay inside, stay safe and we’ll see you at a show when this is all over!

James, Josh and Hyunsu
