 TeenSpot.com - Music Review - Captain Everything
Recorded from the pit, this DVD encaptures the true punk rock gig atmosphere and includes some profanity, stage invasions and various beard related anecdotes from the band.
Formed in 1998, Captain Everything emerged onto the London skate punk scene with a bang and have, although never made it huge, gained a ridiculously large underground following and have sealed their own fates thanks to such feats as recording 5 rapid fire poppy skate songs during their first rehearsal.
Thus, Englands Captain Everything, skate punk beatniks proved to be a quality example of their work.

 Nude Magazine – Issue 4 – God Save Jamie Reid
This was a local Croydon-based magazine, co-founded by Reid in 1970, as a kind of shit-stirring mix of local politics, cut-and-paste graphics, absurd humour, agit-prop/ Situationist aphorisms and a lot of subtly subversive mischief-making; all conceived as a spirited antidote to the prevailing earnestness and beard-scratching inertia of more orthodox left-wing politics.
And why does Jamie think the whole punk thing become mythologised to the extent that you can now imagine 40-year-old men being asked by their wide-eyed siblings, 'daddy, what did you do during punk?'
And within punk itself, Jamie's oblique, enigmatic sloganeering made the more earnest proselytising of contemporaries such as The Clash, look woefully pedestrian.

 Massimiliano Adelmo Giorgini: 04/01/2004 - 04/30/2004
Giorgini sports a beard and mustache that he insists he grew long before Fidel Castro came to power in Cuba.

 Aversion.com Reviews
Popping Millencolin's Pennybridge Pioneers into the stereo, it's almost impossible not to envision some old-timer punk rocker, bent over with age, stroking his long, spindly beard, moaning about how in his day music was so much meaner, louder and, overall more punk, in his day.
It's not that any track on this album is particularly bad, nor even annoyingly cloy, but with the band's milquetoast arrangements and themes, it obviously was gunning for the safety of the punk rock middle ground, and scoring a direct hit in the process.
Oddly, the most striking track on Pennybridge Pioneers is its closing number, "The Ballad," an acoustic number chronicling the difficulties of youthful rejection.

 Death From Above 1979: You're a Woman, I'm a Machine: Pitchfork Review
Today the noise is just too much-- something Beard Guy No. 1 never thought he'd say-- and he takes a taxi back to his parents' house in Greenwich, climbs into his Throbbing Gristle pajamas, and cries cries cries until his hornrims fog up.
In the corner of every show-- even if it's the dirtiest, smelliest AS220 showcase or an impromptu Lightning Bolt concert in a Jamaica Plain kitchen-- there's always some guy with a beard talking to another guy with a beard about feelings.
The first is the sex-furious, self-explanatory graphic fete "Pull Out"; the second, "Sexy Results", is about getting back to the prowl, and it's the best dance-punk song since the late genre's untimely death earlier this year.

 Music Reviews
Everything on here could be swept under the “emotional rock, post hardcore” label, and maybe somebody that really cared about this would be able to make a distinction between these 22 treasures, but the beard is not that somebody.
Three songs that are emotional rock and roll with obvious punk roots.
The songs are fast, sing-y punk rock songs that probably won’t do much for you unless this is your scene.

 Ink Nineteen: Mike Watt
It's obvious that Watt is in control, as he directs the proceedings with tugs of his beard and winks of his eye, but never does he overpower his bandmates.
Mike Watt was in the Minutemen, one of the most influential punk bands of all time.
His flannel shirt and scrawling beard only add to the lumberjack impression -- he looks like he could really fix your truck!

 cd review: malibu stacey - cuatro discos de stomp - leeds music scene (397)
The overall impression so far is that if Malibu Stacey were a person rather than a band, they'd be a big fat forty year old with a crazy beard and a Hawaiian shirt, talented, experienced and in your face.
The first time I saw Malibu Stacey, I had no idea who they were but was blown away by their professionalism and purist punk rock style.
This E.P gives four tracks of aggressive, entertaining and eclectic punk rock.

 Junkmedia: An interview with Phantom Tollbooth
The album juxtaposes Tollbooth's punk-flavored take on blues, jazz and classic rock with Pollard's pop sensibilities and occasionally awkward lyrics (i.e., "The critical stage is raining down/Lost emotions being found/Origins of crowded house/Make a short line shorter," from the opener, "Mascara Snakes").
Fans who are familiar with Power Toy may refuse to believe that Beard of Lightning could work because Power Toy was such a wonderful finish to the band's short career.
The result is Beard of Lightning (Off Records), an album that may take Tollbooth and GBV fans a while to reckon with, but one that is worth the effort.

A Beard of Bees, This Kind of Punishment's second album, was recorded in 1984.
Soon after, the Jefferies brothers recorded the first This Kind of Punishment album at home on 4-track, abandoning punk rock for a stripped-down, quiet approach.

 Death From Above 1979: You're a Woman, I'm a Machine: Pitchfork Review
Today the noise is just too much-- something Beard Guy No. 1 never thought he'd say-- and he takes a taxi back to his parents' house in Greenwich, climbs into his Throbbing Gristle pajamas, and cries cries cries until his hornrims fog up.
Frustration and jealousy increase to painful degrees until the title track's punk chorus ("Now that it's over, I love you more and more"), an avatar of the album's bitterness.
You're a Woman comes as an unexpected and almost regrettable delight in that sense-- it has the attitude, but possibly too much substance, for a true Vice Records release.

Darby's friend Melissa told him the funeral was only for Punks and ''punks don't have beards'' and everybody sneaked out without him.
Because he was on the run, with a description as a Punk, he had grown a beard.
Darby shot up the girl and pinned a note on the wall that said: ''Here lies Darby Crash'' with an arrow pointing to his head, and spread himself out like a cross.

Scalzo, a refugee from the hard-core punk scene in Orange County, Calif., arrived in Austin to play bass behind songwriter Beaver Nelson.
The secret to Fastball's creative chemistry is the contrast between the singing and songwriting styles of Zuniga and Scalzo.

Zombie played mix-tape-maker with the rest of the soundtrack, including some classic country (Buck Owens' "Who's Gonna Mow Your Grass"), punk (the Ramones' "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue") and soul, courtesy of Zombie's spiritual predecessor Screamin' Jay Hawkins.

 S. T. Karnick on Snow by Spock's Beard on National Review Online
This ignorance is the main reason the biggest critic-driven trends of the past four decades — folk, punk, disco, and then, simultaneously in the past decade, grunge, rap, metal, industrial, and Lilith folk — have been based on these things rather than music.
Progressive rock, or prog, has been largely derided by critics throughout the three decades since it hit the scene in the early 1970s.
Rock criticism has always extolled lyrics, artistic personae, emotional directness, and visual presentation because those are things a writer can observe without having studied music.

 UK70s Prog Rock Greats
Prog's often-inspired compositions and superior musicianship were not lost on the millions of fans scooping up albums like "Close to the Edge," "Trick of the Tail" and "Brain Salad Surgery." While punk and disco have not aged well, progressive rock not only survived the 1970s, but still sounds as great today, if not
We include a sampling of 'non-UK' 70s tracks from the likes of PFM, Focus, Happy the Man, Le Orme, and Kansas, and include newer groups such as Spock's Beard, The Flower Kings, Marillion, and Transatlantic.
In the 1970s, critics often derided prog as being pretentious, highlighting its excesses while ignoring its unique qualities.

Based in Austin, Texas, Zeitgeist plays smooth, country-flavored folk rock that derives a slight edge from punk.

 Off Records
Combining abrupt tempo and harmonic changes with dense sonic knots and oddball musicianship mistaken for "chops", the very-powerful-trio created a classic punk/classic rock hybrid of unwarranted and perhaps unwanted wantoness.

 Review: Lungfish
With his heavy beard and black suit, he looked more like someone sitting in the back of a socialist coffee house than a punk singer, but as soon as he began, all was forgotten.
After the band had worked the audience into a heavy groove, the eccentric Daniel Higgs took the stage.
A Washington, D.C., mainstay, Lungfish has released four albums on the Dischord label and one early EP on Simple Machines.

 Splendid: Departments: LiveLine: Superchunk, The Good Life, Rilo Kiley
Resplendent in a vintage Ghostbusters tee shirt and a full beard, Kasher and his band were full of energy, playing lots of great new songs, as well as some choice cuts from their debut CD, Novena on a Nocturn.
The fact is that they have been churning out album after album of hyper pop-punk for the past ten years, and I'm sure that at this point, they're looking to expand their horizons a bit and branch out into different arenas.
The last time I saw The Good Life, Kasher didn't seem too terribly invested in what he was doing, but tonight, he had energy to spare, and watching him pour his heart and soul into singing his introspective songs was invigorating.

 Elysium Flower - History
I believe my first impression when I saw him for our first band practice was ‘What a big fucker!!’; Many grim tattoos adorned his tree trunk arms, long hair stretched to his shoulders and a big bushy beard grew around his big smile.
The reaction was immense, baring in mind we were playing mainly to the crowd brought along by the previous act (a young punk band that I can’t recall the name of), though we had our fair share of support.
The band practices soon became drinking sessions (for me anyway) and none of the other band members seemed to be interested in the project, having very different influences musically.

 The Austin Chronicle Music: Phases and Stages
The warbles and wails make the album a difficult listen at times, but The Fall on Deaf Ears is nevertheless a precious document of a mid-Nineties El Paso scene that's already proven to be an important one in Texas punk history.
Already apparent is the controlled aggression and textural fury that became ATDI's hallmark, but the riot-grrrl vocals of Beard and Reiser give the project its own personality.

Roderick was once part of the much-acclaimed and never-recorded Western State Hurricanes, a Seattle band that "imploded." So then he went walking through Europe for five months and grew a beard and thought about abandoning singing and songwriting.
One early inspiration was hisolder sister, who left her Duran Duran cover band to go punk, inspiring Roderick to write songs about how lame it was to be an Anchorage punker.
John Roderick, indie hero and frontman of The Long Winters, is an actual person.
