Brutal Youth
From their own, slightly dubious biography:
"Art Brut met at the annual Arthur Brut convention
in Germany, these 5 complete strangers were so taken with the eminent
scientist's work they formed a band in tribute to him there and
then on the spot. They had some rehearsals and then started playing
some gigs, which went quite well. Art Brut are working towards World
Peace, so anything that goes wrong is due to a plot against the
band."
Art Brut are Eddie Argos (vocals), Ian Catskilkin
(guitar), Freddy Feedback (bass), Mikey B (drums), Jasper Future
(guitar) and these are presumably not their given names. Following
the release of a string of cult underground singles and their debut
album, Art Brut were picked up in late 2006 by Labels / Mute, commencing
with the release of the single 'Nag Nag Nag Nag' in November.
