  2. Detroit Grand Pubahs - Madd Circus (DetEleFunk)

    The fourth offering from Detroit's forebearers of techo-funk leaves a lot to be desired.

  5. Offset Festival

    Live Reviews: Offset Festival @ Hainault Forest, London 04-05.09.10

    Set in the rural grounds of Hainault Forest, Offset Festival brings the best in indie, electronic, and post-punk music to round off the great British summer. As an Offset virgin, Bearded is pleasantly pleased to have it's cherry popped over this inebriated weekend. Fortunately, one's memory serves well enough to tell you the highs and lows of London’s glorified boutique festival. On entrance, it immediately features one of the best ideas for a festival ever – a car park NEXT to the camp site NEXT to the arena. Fucking genius!

  7. Plants and Animals

    Live Reviews: Plants and Animals @ the Old Blue Last, Hoxton 09.09.10

    It’s cosy and friendly upstairs at Hoxton’s Old Blue Last. Impressive Norwegian openers Moddi’s warm, cinematic post-rock goes down a storm - lovely stuff. The Pattern Theory’s competent but unexciting update on mid-70s Pink Floyd is nothing special, but it’s Plants and Animals most of us have come to see.

  10. Richard Thompson - Dream Attic (Proper)

    Albums: Richard Thompson - Dream Attic (Proper)

    No one has told Richard Thompson about the accepted order of things, but then he has always seemed to go his own way.
