THE BEAUTIFUL UNKNOWN

"Why pick a decade or era and ape it, why not pull out all your influences and squeeze them into something fresh." So The Beautiful Unknown have the Groove of the Yardbirds, the swagger of Zeppelin, the quirk of Bowie and the timber of Joy Division. It's brilliant, modern music.

If we aren't hearing more about this absolutely brilliant band soon there's something very wrong with the world.

As the last note rang out barely 45 minutes later, I felt flush with the exhilaration of having witnessed something great…the only thing standing between TBU and stardom would be time and a few more stages."

Truth Explosion Magazine



With Barlow's sultry voice, which sounds like a mix of Queens of the Stone Age's

Josh Homme and Franz Ferdinand's Alex Kapranos, and Derek Downham's crazed playing on both the drums and guitar, the band impressed throughout.

Klublife Magazine



The Beautiful Unknown has been able to blend a few different styles to make a sound of their own, something that can be an elusive target for many bands. … it is difficult for me to explain exactly how that sound surfaces. Some of the songs were so powerful that I had to lower my camera just so I could just take in the whole stage all at once.
