Behold South Australia’s The Beards. As you might imagine, the members of the band are hirsute. In fact, every one of their songs are about beards – three albums worth. And while their new album, Having a Beard is the New Not Having a Beard doesn’t contain gems from their first two, like “A Wizard Needs a Beard” or “My Baby Left Me For A Man Without A Beard,” it does feature the above song, a sensitive love song called “You Should Consider Having Sex With a Bearded Man.” Already a hit in Australia, this video has upwards of 325,000 hits on Youtube. If Tenacious D were an ’80s metal band, they’d sound something like this – and Kyle Gass would have to grow a beard.
