The Blood Arm, Paris Suit Yourself, Great White Shark at Madame JoJo's - 18 October 2011
Paris Suit Yourself by Sebastien Dehesdin   I’m not sure that I like surprises. What has caught me off guard is a previously unforeseen third band on tonight’s bill. This throws the timings out and will have implications later on in the evening. The unexpected pleasure is Great White Shark, who hail from Berlin, but are originally from the UK. They illustrate how times and...
The Blood Arm at The Lexington - 19 November 2010
The Blood Arm     I’m not good at counting. I’m watching the entirely sensibly proportioned Keith Top of the Pops And His Minor UK Indie Celebrity Allstar Backing Band and I’m not sure whether there are sixteen or seventeen people on stage. The conceit here is to have as many musicians as can be rounded up play the most basically straightforward garage pop....
King Antics; and Meaningless Achievements – Featuring A Guest Appearance From Eddie Argos!
These days, it’s all about numbers. So whether reaching the nicely-rounded 500 mark in Twitter Followers is a big deal or not is a moot point. It just is, OK? For me, added excitement  came in the suave and witty form of Art Brut’s Eddie Argos, who, with a click of his mouse, became ANBAD’s 500th follower. Such delightful serendipity is one of life’s most...
DOWNLOAD: Art Brut – Lost Weekend
It’s Friday and, for that very reason, the possibility exists—as ever—that the next two days will be a bit hazy. Here we have Art Brut’s "Lost Weekend" to send us stumbling on our way. This single off their fourth album, Brilliant Tragic!, is about as melodic as the band has ever sounded, with singer Eddie Argos actually crooning (the remnants of his spoken word...
Offset Festival Day One - 04 September 2010
Teeth!!! (photo Wyldman)     This is not going to be a definitive report on the 2010 Offset Festival. For starters, over the two days I saw over fifty acts that I LIKED to varying degrees. And I couldn’t be everywhere, despite trying my best. Things get off to a rollicking start on Saturday with Hull’s The Neat on the Main Stage. Much angular guitar and the first instance...

Art Brut - Just Desserts
Art Brut’s new, Frank Black-produced album, Art Brut Vs. Satan, drops May 12 through Downtown, but "Just Desserts" won’t be on it. The track, drawn from the same "punk-as-fuck" sessions the band did with Black for the record, didn’t quite make the tracklist, which isn’t to say that its three and a half minutes of simplified, serrated guitars and...
It'll Be Filthy This Christmas
The Filthy Little Angels Christmas compilation is as traditional as overcooked sprouts, mistletoe kisses from your granny, novelty xmas socks from your aunty and the Christmas TOTP being crap and this years is no exception.   There’s Eddie Argos & Keith TOTP’s recherché remodelling of the Cliff Richard’s ‘Mistletoe & Wine’ into a true indie...

Art Brut + Reptar at BMH
Photographs by Emma Dessau Live Review by Nick Parker   We Take You There… Brighton Music Hall Boston, MA - 06/20/11   Art Brut - Modern Art     It seems like RSL has been shadowing Art Brut on their current tour. We were there to catch their NXNE show in Toronto last week, and on Monday they joined us in Boston, at the Brighton Music Hall, with support from...
Untitled Musical Project
Band name: Untitled Musical Project Label: Tigertrap Teaser: The Band With No Name are back with The EP With No Name - and we’re gurning like fools. Kevin Perry contemplates whether such a stupendous live act can get it all nailed down in the studio… Pull quote 2: Perhaps this album represented an opportunity for them to run further, and to create a more...
In Loving Memory Of (EP)
Band name: LET'S WRESTLE Label: Stolen Recordings Teaser: The label behind Pete and the Pirates makes their first move of 2008, and it’s a good move too. Like the child gangsters from Bugsy Malone, Let’s Wrestle are anarchistic, diabolic, and probably psychotic. Lewis Hingston reviews their debut EP… Pull quote 2: the band come off as a less...
