This Week's Playlist #133 - The Bear edition

5 songs of the first 2 seasons of the Bear

---

Hello everyone!

This Week's Playlist - Season 3, Episode 29.

I wrote about TV shows and their themes last year for the finale of Succession (what a final season it was).

Another of the best TV shows of the last couple of years, The Bear, is back with a third season. I've really enjoyed it so far and for the occasion. I'm re-watching the first two seasons as a refresher.

For those who don't know about it:

The Bear is a comedy-drama television series featuring an award-winning chef who returns to his hometown of Chicago to manage the chaotic kitchen at his deceased brother's sandwich shop.

However, the soundtrack is very 90s rock music focused, for the pleasure of the 90s teenagers here. So, for this week, here are five tracks from the Bear.

I hope you enjoy it, and see you next week.

There is a YouTube link for each of the songs on the cover, and here are the playlists for each streaming platform:

---

1. Refused - New Noise

2. Sufjan Stevens - Chicago (demo)

3. Wilco - Impossible Germany

4. LCD Soundsystem - call the police

5. R.E.M. Strange Currencies

Until the next time, Godspeed!
