If it’s weird you want then look no further than the Beta Band. They are weirder than a truly weird thing on a day wen it’s feeling really weird.

It’s been two years since their first release so why it’s taken them so long to get round to recording their debut album is beyond me. I hate to think what they were doing.

Weird doesn’t mean bad though. In amongst the strange are some really good songs like It’s Not Too Beautiful, Broken Up A Ding Ding and The Hard One.

There’s not really much more I can write about them. I don’t know what style of music they play because it changes with every song (and sometimes every verse) so all I can really tell you is to check it out.
