The Owl Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 For anyone who has not listened to this band yet...... DO SO NOW! One of the most impressive prog bands formed this millennium.... Very talented musicians... They are truly a unique band... I have all but their first album (the first 2 albums were independent releases and are hard to find) and I enjoy all........ The "Sleeping in Traffic" albums are great, it is what I would recommend first, then the new album "Destined Solitaire" Check out this song : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 I love these guys. I don't have their first couple yet, but I've got all of the rest. Almost saw them live on Progressive Nation 2009 but their tour financing got pulled. I still hope to catch them live one day because I think their albums are awesome. I doubt many here would be into them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shifty Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 I've only got Sleeping in Traffic Pt2, but have been meaning to add to that. Very 70's style prog. They remind me a little of Gentle Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Owl Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 Lyrically they are very Zappa-esk... not too serious and at times Humerous.. Listen to this track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the lack of many responses here prove my point, but I originally observed that based on what music seems to get discussed here. Beardfish is probably among my favorite bands to come out in the last 10 years, but they don't seem to be for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony R Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 They're OK, a bit long-winded even for a Prog band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked it very much as well... probably their most cohesive and well produced album so far... All their albums are great, other than the first album, I have not listened to that one yet.. it is a hard find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oracle Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Been getting into them more and more lately thanks to a friend of mine. Great band. They really remind me of early 70s prog, which I love. 'Mammoth' is album of the year, no question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Owl Posted April 3, 2011 Author Share Posted April 3, 2011 After 2 more listens Methinks this might be their best album... very very well done. I got the 2 Disc DVD version... gonna watch the live material tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdFireYYZ Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) I thought I remember seeing a thread about the new album but I couldn't find it in search. Maybe it was on a different forum. The Void - August 28th! http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51ZTbs-bWhL._SL500_AA280_.jpg Samples here: http://www.amazon.com/The-Void/dp/B008OI61...=beardfish+void Seventeen Again, Ludwig & Sverker, and Note sound awesome!! The cover reminds me of PT's The Incident. I still need to get the rest of their albums. I only have Sleeping In Traffic Part 1 and Mammoth.

The Owl Posted August 5, 2012 Author Share Posted August 5, 2012 Looking forward to this one... samples sound really good, hopefully the album follows suit.... Mammoth is gonna be hard to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Sawyer Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Huge fan of Sleeping in Traffic, Part 2. I also have Mammoth on my to-listen list. I might also have to pre-order the new album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
