Note:
For major Art Brut fans, $50 gets you into all five nights of the Mercury Lounge shows.
Indie-pop punks Art Brut take over Mercury Lounge this week, on the heels of the release of their third album, Art Brut vs. Satan — which marks a departure from what lead singer Eddie Argos calls "miserable songs about breaking up with girls." The defiant anthem "Alcoholics Unanimous" and the boyishly nostalgic "DC Comics and Chocolate Milkshake" best signal this shift from the thoughtful British art-rock quartet. Openers change each night, and include Pitchfork darlings Cymbals Eat Guitars.
