At first i thought, “do I really ever need to see Art Brut again?” Then I listened to the new album (Art Brut vs. Satan – out now on Downtown Records), and thought, “I really do want to see Art Brut again!”, especially if again happens at a venue as small as Mercury Lounge.

As you can see above, tickets are still available for three of the five NYC shows. All dates HERE.

As you can also see above, the final night, now unfortunately sold out, seems to be the most special. Not only will it be the final night, but Keith TOTP means they’re keeping it in the family (“Minor US Indie Celebrity All Star Backing Band” included), and “special guest” means, well… “Special Guest”. If I could take one guess, my guess would be Art Brut 47 (aka We are Scientists), but that is just a guess.

A video diary of the recording of the new Art Brut album, with producer Frank Black (who by the way is playing the Siren Festival this year), is posted below…
