Art Brut have announced that their new album is called Brilliant! Tragic! It will be released on May 23rd via Cooking Vinyl. We can always expect a solid album from Art Brut, so I’m all for it.
Pixies frontman Black Francis is once again producing the album. Apparently he got Eddie Argos to sing this time around. Even Eddie admits it’s funny that it took him 4 albums to finally start to sing. I know I’m not alone in my excitement to see Eddie’s singing chops.
The band has a Pledgemusic page set up where you can help the band out. Some rewards include the band coming to play at your house. Not bad, eh?
