Watching Art Brut live upheld every expectation I had. Humorous stories, great music, and even one of the amps caught on fire on stage. Art Brut really are one of the great live acts around, I mean if you listen to any of their albums, you can tell that it’s going to translate really well live. Art Brut is more than just a group of people playing some songs, Eddie Argos takes you through what feels like a late night shows, giving in depths views on a variety of different subjects, great little stories about Iggy Pop and David Bowie, and jokes around with the audience all while the band rock out and give Argos stories a context. Argos told me that they are halfway through their US tour so I would definitely try to make a show of theirs if they come around your area.
