A Beard of Bees

by This Kind of Punishment

A Beard of Bees cover art

Conceived by brothers Peter and Graeme Jefferies, this exceptionally bleak release operates on the experimental fringes of the legendary Flying Nun roster. Utilizing primitive multi-track recording methods, the album relies on stark minimalism, discordant piano phrasing, and a deeply paranoid lyrical atmosphere. It is widely considered an obscure classic of lo-fi post-punk artistry.
