Art Brut at the Echo
November 19th, 2005
It’s been a while since I’ve seen an English band with so much stage presence. Art Brut; really took over the venue for a bit. One of their openers Darker My Love sounded a bit like a more melodic Dead Meadow. The other funny thing about Art Brut is their (ironic?) obsession with Los Angeles. It must stem from Los Angeles being in some ways the inverse of London. At least, the two are very very different places, but it almost seems like parts of LA would love to be London.
I digress. Big news otherwise is there is a power outage at USC which is coming at such short notice that it screws up a lot of plans for a lot of people, including myself and my lab group.
More photos from me and others of Art Brut here.
