Beard on Subcity radio 3.12.07

Thought that was a good show tonight. Some cheap innuendo from Neil and myself, and a right slagging of Morrissey. Musically we had Stevie Wonder as featured artist, and a fine selection of tunes that takes in Norwegian bizarro-prog-metal, Japanese underground jazz-pop, a collaboration between Morecambe & Wise's guitarist and the dark prince of Japanese noise rock, motorik grooves both German and Canadian, Iranian classical masters, and the dadaist soundtrack to a Czech new wave Classic.

And while you're at it check out the other clips featuring such Beard favourites as Battles, Holy Fuck, Espers, and our new favourite Philippino hardcore band, Vampire State. Alright!
