Somehow it's been 2 months since the release of It's A Bit Complicated, and I've never re-declared my love of Art Brut.(1) If you've heard of Art Brut and have their new album, ignore the rest of this post, but check out the video.
(2) If you've heard of Art Brut and don't have their new album, skip down to the downloads.
(3) If you haven't heard of Art Brut, stick with me (or, alternatively, skip to the downloads).
Like Bang Bang Rock & Roll, the newest Art Brut album seems to exist to document Eddie Argos' conquests and failures of the female variety, accompanied by his voice that speaks but never sings, backed up by a his band mates, who play some quality Rock & Roll. The British-ness doesn't hurt.
