Art Brut vs. Satan by Art Brut: Indie Rock. The songs follow pretty much the same formula as their previous two albums. Argos’ dead pan delivery and rocking guitars provide the usual winces at the lyrics and also the smiles at the clever turns of phrases: “I fought the floor and the floor won” when describing being drunk for example. It’s a good album, though lacking some of the urgency of the debut. TWH: Alcoholics Unanimous; Summer Job; Catch

Grade: B
