About Art Brut

Driven by Eddie Argos' enthusiastic spoken-sung vocals and witty insights on pop music, pop culture, and relationships, Art Brut make brilliantly simple art-punk. Upon their arrival in the early 2000s, Art Brut were considered part of the "Art Wave" scene that also included Franz Ferdinand and Bloc Party. However, they stood out from their contemporaries thanks to Argos' one-of-a-kind viewpoint, which was the heart and soul of the band's music on rawer albums like 2005's debut Bang Bang Rock & Roll as well as more polished ones such as 2011's Brilliant! Tragic! and 2018's Wham! Bang! Pow! Let's Rock Out! By the time archival releases like 2024's And Yes, This Is My Singing Voice! appeared, Art Brut were seen as standard-bearers for Idles, Dry Cleaning, and other outspoken U.K. post-punk revivalists.
