The 7 inch b-sides have Art Brut covers by various Art Brut Franchises – an exceedingly clever concept initiated by the band, whereby absolutely anyone can form an Art Brut franchise. As a franchisee you are encouraged to submit photos and news to the site and even record your own versions of Art Brut songs!
But anyway, back to Emily Kane. This is Eddie Argos at his very best. A heartfelt re-visit to a teenage love-lost. The fact that Emily is a real person and that up until very recently he hadn’t seen her in ten years, makes it all the more absorbing.

The last 12 months have been pretty amazing for Art Brut but there is lots more work to do. Starting with getting Art Brut cd’s into the Supermarkets. Because remember, “they only sell things that have charted”.
Art Brut – they’ve only just started. Go and buy Emily Kane. NOW.
