The Bugbear was a short-lived indie pop/punk band formed by Heavenly drummer Mathew Fletcher. They released two EPs and a full-length studio album, Plan for the Assassination of The Bugbear. In contrast to Heavenly and his former band Talulah Gosh, their sound was closer to the punk rock approach favoured by Fletcher. The first EP, Sea Monkeys, was issued by Swing Set Records on 7" vinyl, and contained "Sea Monkeys", "Oh Honey", "Geiner Rules" and "So I'm Silly".
