WO95 - Art Brut

another huge disappointment - a band called Art Brut should be good + they released an entertaining single in 2004. Art Brut is a band that you either love or you hate. i belong to the latter category. sure they are fun but the problem with jokes is that you can only really laugh at them once, maybe twice if it is really good. after that you at most fake a laugh to be polite when you're told the joke for the n-th time. in this case i can't even do that because i find it offensive that music should be the vehicle for humour. that's even worse than dealing with politics. is there really any point to put music to your jokes? does it make the jokes better? i just don't get the idea. plus the music itself is not that exciting. maybe that's the point - the jokes serve as a distraction? still like the name though...
