About Wizard's Beard

Wizard's Beard are a group of filthy sludge merchants hailing from the Leeds, England. After releasing their debut album 'Pure Filth' through psycheDOOMelic, Wizard's Beard followed this up by hitting the studio again a mere 8 months later and then departing on a UK & European tour. The restuls of that 2nd trip in to the studio were released as 'Four Tired Undertakers' on Feb 10th 2012 through Altsphere productions, a european tour will follow in the summer. 'Four Tired Undertakers' was featured as Roadburns album of the day: http://www.roadburn.com/2012/02/album-of-the-day-wizards-beard-four-tired-undertakers/ Four Tired Undertakers Press: "'Four Tired Undertakers' is a nasty, toxic dose of afflicting, agonizing, cruel, excruciating doomed sludge that should have ALL fans of the riff drooling with delight." - Doommantia 9.5/10 http://www.doommantia.com/2012/02/wizards-beard-four-tired-undertakers.html "The band have honed their sound and have become more ambitious with the structures of their songs – they’re more complex but no less immediate, hitting hard from start to finish. The band haven’t changed, they’ve just gotten better at what they do." - The Sleeping Shaman http://www.thesleepingshaman.com/reviews/album-reviews/w/wizards-beard-four-tired-undertakers-cd-2012/ "These guys are just fucking evil!" - Psychorizon http://psychorizon.wordpress.com/2012/02/12/wizards-beard-four-tired-undertakers/ Pure Filth Press: "With crushing, primordial riffs providing the backdrop for Chris Hardy’s ferocious-sounding screams, Wizard’s Beard’s debut is not for the faint-hearted." Chybucca Sounds http://chybuccasounds.com/2011/03/24/wizards-beard-pure-filth-ep/ "One of the best debut releases in recent years" - Doommantia 9.5 / 10 http://www.doommantia.com/2011/03/wizards-beard-pure-filth-ep.html "Considering the choice of album title it also doubles as an accurate description of the music contained within as the tempo lurches back and forth like a punch drunk psychopath, spitting and snarling the dark parts of their inner psyche" - The Sleeping Shaman http://www.thesleepingshaman.com/reviews/album/WizardsBeard_PureFilth.php http://www.wizardsbeard.co.uk/
