"Post Soothing Out" is my favorite of the bunch. I can't wait to see the state of Eddie Argos's mustache on this next tour! To folks in LA and NYC, flickr your photos please!

Yay. But how does one locate them? I don't immediately find a way to the downloads on their official site or MySpace...

You can get the songs on the page I pointed too (tho perhaps not clearly enough) in the blog post. Here it is again:

This is not the first time Liz and I have answered the same question, the same way, at the same time.
It's starting to scare me a bit. But in a good way!

The new songs are brilliant, just like you would expect from Art Brut.
Too bad the band is just too darn British to get huge in the U.S. of A.
