I've only really listened to one album of theirs so far - their first official release, A Little Man and a House and the Whole World Window. Can already tell this band is somewhat underrated on this site. Their music is unlike anything I've ever heard, a strange and intoxicating mix of punk with progressive and art rock. It's like a precursor to Mr Bungle in it's carnivalesque atmosphere - but at the same time extremely different from Mike Patton's project. R.I.P. Tim Smith. Thanks for the music. I look forward to getting to know it better

Praise be unto THE ALPHABET BUSINESS CONCERN for allowing Tim Smith to drill his majesty into my unworthy ears. May it never let go.
Incredible music, completely changed how I listen to music. Nothing simple can satisfy me now! Tim Smith is a total genius.
The greatest band ever, bar none. Tim Smith is a true musical genius. One day his unique talents will be fully recognised.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
