Art Brut ask Morrissey to forgive his parents
posted by davidt on Thursday May 05 2005, @09:00AM

 Benni Dangerous writes:

Art Brut (London band famous for Formed A Band) released their third single, "Emily Kane", on Monday (2nd May) and on it is the B-Side "About Time".

The opening line "There was a time when I couldn't stomach Morrissey" and goes on to "I hope this doesn't cause offence, but I think its time you forgave your parents, I've nothing to say in their defence, but I think its time you forgave your parents."

A really touching song, nearly brought a tear to my eye.

Check it out, its nice

    Morrissey is no one without parent-centered anger. But he looks good in denim! Grrr...

        They also mention Morrissey in their song "Moving To LA". Art Brut are one of the most interesting new bands of the past 12 months.

          I've actually heard this song. It is astoundingly crap. They sound like a bunch of students who just formed down the campus bar and all took out their how to play guitar/bass/drums books one week before recording.

          I've seen them live (in support of Luke Haines) and they were awesome. Great performers. The lead singer is very charismatic and they are extremely interesting lyrically.

          a kind of outsider quality to their stuff. Emily Kane is a great single.

            Not much gets me excited (musically) these days, but, I saw this lot on MTV2 with 'Formed a Band', so I went to see them live in a little local club.

            Fantastic energy, attitude, wit and a raw stripped down sound.

            Combine that with a frontman, Eddie Argos(!), who had me laughing/enjoying his shirt ripping performance almost as much as the first time I saw Moz on TOTP, all of those years ago.

            Catch them now, close up, 'cos, he/they will be MASSIVE.

              I'm not sure about this effort to psychoanalyse the Moz stereotype, maybe meant in jest, but seems a bit lazy. Still the fact that artists are incorporating reflections from him into their own work supports the claim that he has become an iconic inspiration.

                    first time I heard art brut I thought they were pretty crap (but then I felt the same way about moz..)

                    after seeing them a few times and knowing their songs better I must say that (along with the magic numbers & the pipettes) they are defintely one of the most promising bands from london..

                    see them live if you get the chance!

                      I'm so glad I'm not famous. It must be really tedious having idiots pontificating on aspects of your life they haven't got a clue about.
