Theyre an eccentric, motley bunch who have more in common with Half Man Half Biscuit and Pulp than they do with their oft-compared influences The Fall. Vocalist Eddie Argos (an ex-goth obsessed with Jonathan Richman and Vincent Van Gogh) had previously been in a band, The Art Goblins, in his hometown of Bournemouth. Their stage show would see him playing a vacuum cleaner and escaping from a sack. They sounded not unlike cult Glaswegians The Yummy Fur and had songs such as I Wanna Be Johnny Dean and Disco. Another project was The Welsh Elephant, who penned the should-be-classic Fuck The MSP (which contains the catchy refrain Nicky Wire can suck my cock!).
Art Brut是05年英国摇滚乐的新晋，首张专辑《Bang Bang Rock & Roll》在发行前变被人们所热烈的关注，当然NME少不了一翻热炒。Art Brut以他们的音乐特点赢得了英国年轻人的追捧，首张专辑各界的评价都很不错，连AMG都给了4星半的高分。他们的摇滚乐最大的特点除了旋律外，就在于演唱上面了，主唱Eddie Argos 那感觉像是半说半唱的演唱方式给了很多人一个意外的惊喜。新专辑《 It's A Bit Complicated》将在6月19号发行，专辑的风格依然延续以前。从Art Brut的音乐中你可以很好的感觉到The Libertines，Franz Ferdinand和Bloc Party的音乐。，不仅不慢的演唱方式，加上快而劲暴的节奏，不伦从那个角度欣赏都是十分特别的感觉。如果你还没有听过他们的第一张专辑，那就不需要去听了，直接听这张，而后反回去听第一张。俩张的感觉可以让你找到相互连接的地方。这就是Art Brut，主唱Eddie Argos仍然用最直白的歌词去阐述歌曲，去表现现实社会
PS：一张很特别的流行朋克，旋律很好听，关键是主唱一直在用自己的行为证明自己说的比唱的好听，是的，说唱与流朋的融合！
