Beware of Safety, commonly abbreviated as BoS, is an instrumental post-rock band from Los Angeles, California. The band plays sprawling, instrumental rock that could be classified as post-metal, post-rock, and even math rock at some points. Beware of Safety is currently on The Mylene Sheath roster in the United States.[1] Their first release, It Is Curtains, was originally distributed in Japan by Friend of Mine records in 2007.
The band has received a notable amount of press for their album dogs, including a write-up in Wired Magazine's Sunday Soundtracking.[2][3]
In early 2009, Tad Piecka joined BoS on bass, expanding the band to five members.[4]
The creation of 2011's Leaves/Scars was a tumultuous time for BoS with members contemplating quitting the band.[5]
Beware of Safety's 2014 album Lotusville reflects the band's experiences living in Los Angeles, California.[6]
Member Morgan Hendry is also an engineer at Jet Propulsion Lab.
