Beard Radio 24.9.09

Stewart and Gary bring you the second Beard Radio of the term. And this time there’s only one cock up! Yes, unfortunately there’s a minute or so of dead air around the 11 minute mark ‘cos we forgot to turn the microphones on. Oooops! Hey, that’s the sort of hapless idiocy we’re known and loved for. Our show starts about 1 minute 30 seconds into the file with the awesome NWOBHM shredder Angel Witch, by Angel Witch, from the album Angel Witch. YOU’RE AN ANGELWITCH!!!

Yes, this week’s show is brought to you by the words WOBBLE and WITCH. So we’ve got some bass heavy wobblers and some witchy sounds for you, as well as a bunch of other stuff we like. Bugging out at the brilliance of Tyondai Braxton’s solo LP, grooved by the Yiddish improv of Barnacled, haunted by the minimal pop beauty of The xx, spangled by Bizzy B’s darkside classic, wobbled by Cotti’s dubstep banger… In other words, a killer show. Enjoy!
