Pitchfork

You can hush all your nag-nag-nag-naggin': meta-punk-rockers Art Brut's It's a Bit Complicated finally has a full tracklist. Now you know definitively what eleven barked-out Eddie Argos nuggets'll be running through your head at inopportune moments for the next several months. It's got a cover, too, with-- for some reason-- instruments of geometry. So that's that, then; all you've got to do is sit on your hands 'til June 26 when Downtown Records and/or Mute actually give you the thing.

Of course, if you can't wait that long, you've got options; by now, you're all read up on the band's Talking to the Kids DVD, which you can scoop up Stateside May 22. And then, of course, there's the Infinite Livez Vs Stade album Art Brut Fe De Yoot, which has absolutely nothing to do with Art Brut the band, but could very well tide you over regardless.
