Indeed, Sleeping in Traffic pt I or II is the place to start.

You reckon?
"A THOUSAND NAKED BODIES IN A PIT OF FLESH.... f**kING!! f**king? f**king."
"Teach me as you would a DOG."
And in the same song, where he faux-raps. If anything I find DS to be their most humorous and jovial in general style & delivery, even if that's used to present serious themes.
Not that I find any of that a problem, DS is my favourite Beardfish album, I just think it may not be the best or easiest introduction to them, though I guess that depends on the person.

I don't find either of those lyrical excerpts to be silly.
Songs like South of the Border and Cashflow ruin SIT2.

Geekfreak, you can't really go wrong with any of their albums. `Mammoth' would probably be a pretty easy place to start. They've got better albums, though. Even `The Void' is terrific, despite the thought that it's a little heavier. Don't be afraid of the 10 or 15 seconds of growled vocals on it that seems to put some people off the album altogether!

Last time I listened to The Void, I really enjoyed it. It's a grower.

Oh, what a wonderful thing! A Beaedfish thread. I listened all their albums, this is a great band.Peefect and intelligent musicians, so many ideas. A band very special. Personally I love "Sleeping in The Traffic Parte One/Two" surely 2 masterpiece of ours days. The problem si that I don't like other albums, cetrainly less than this two. This coulb be not popular but I don't like metal sound... Anyhow unique band...

I's start with Sleeping In Traffic parts 1 and 2.....the later albums have a heavier edge with prog metal overtones.

Get them chronologically after SiT1&2, Destined Solitaire and Mammoth are also great albums. From there you can get their most recent, and controversial, The Void, or explore their earlier albums. I like The Sane Day, it's a little bloated, but good, and unfortunately, I haven't heard their debut album yet.
I read an interview with Rikard yesterday, and he revealed that Beardfish's new album is finished, and is being recorded in December/Janurary, so it may be completed already. He said a June release date is what the record company is pushing for. I don't know where the link is, but it may be on the band's web site.
