"Good god, the Beauty sounds like Kid A got smooshed into Kid Icarus and created SuperKid Density (Density's Child?). Complicated and relentless, this duo is nothing like you'd expect, because it's hard to anticipate their mix of digital distort-crunch beats, near-Michael Jackson breathy beatbox yawps, and disturbing, unpredictable funkiness. This is the sound of Marvin Gaye getting himself a copy of GarageBand and bitsmashing the shit out of every drum loop. It makes sense that their MySpace page lists George Michael and Prince as influences; what's more of a head-scratcher is that, conceivably, someone reading this may not have yet pledged allegiance to the Beauty's funky flag." - PORTLAND MERCURY
"The Beauty sound like a minimalist version of Prince, or perhaps what Prince would have sounded like had he stopped being so funky and starting taking instruction from the Flaming Lips or Radiohead. They're from Portland and they look like the kind of guys your mum would really rather you stayed away from." - Guardian.co.uk

Da Beauty, we are having a surprise party for you with all your favorites.......a gothic puppet show with bloody hobo puppet sex and drunk bird juggling and homemade explosives and a mime that shouts at people for being not cute and a tragic magic show and a wet pants contest and a battle off between a robot hooker and an out of work wizard who got busted for selling beer to minors and some really kick ass music. So act really surprised when the homeless magician/male erotic dancer jumps out of the cake and dirty dances with you!
