The band combines elements of French funk and dance rock. Their self-released debut, 'Le Funk', was a minor splash in the record charts but it wasn't until 2004's "Night On Fire" that the band achieved measurable success. The song is in the movie Grandma's Boy and on The OC. The band's members are guitarists Craig Pfunder and Zeke Buck, bassist Mark Palgy, and drummer Mark Guidry.

VHS or Beta released a new album, 'Bring on the Comets' in August of 2007 which featured the modest alternative rock radio hit "Can't Believe A Single Word"

VHS or Beta is a band originally from Louisville, Kentucky, that combines elements of rock, French house and dance-punk. Their self-released debut Le Funk found some success on the charts, but the band became better known in the wake of their 2004 release Night on Fire. In early 2007, after two and half years of touring, the band made the trek to Asheville, NC to record 2007's Bring on the Comets. Released in August 2007 Bring On The Comets marked a slight change in direction towards a more straightforward pop sound; all this was achieved without sacrificing the band's trademark dance sensibility.

The band's core members are guitarist/vocalist Craig Pfunder, bassist Mark Palgy, and drummer Mark Guidry. Chea Beckley has supported the band on keyboards on tour since 2000, replacing Jerome Miller (1998-2000). Mike McGill was enlisted to play guitar on tour after Zeke Buck left the band in 2006.

Palgy and Pfunder were in the early 90's band Raze with former Elliott and current Wax Fang drummer Kevin Ratterman.

In 2005 the band opened for Duran Duran on a leg of their North American tour.
