ART BRUT 47

Art Brut is still here in New York. They have played 10 shows here in the past eight months. Plus they have another show tonight at the Blender Music Party and are scheduled to play The Siren Music Fest. Who can top those pops numbers?

There is a review of the first of two Knitting Factory Takeover Shows at Product Shop. We Are Scientists were also there as Art Brut 47 but unfortunately did not play Art Brut covers. Some of their lyrics are below me but also catchy because I somehow have them memorized: "My body is your body, I won't tell anybody, if you want use my body, go for it, yeah!"

The Chalets were also fun and oh so stylish. Everybody wants to Feel the Machine (MP3). This is the only song on the album they did not play but should have.

UPDATE
Notice the mustache synergy in the two bands. I only saw this after looking at those photos side by side.
