Art Brut battles it out again with 'Satan'

Indie rockers Art Brut will make another headlining run across the US this fall as they continue to support this spring's "Art Brut Vs. Satan," the band's latest full-length effort.

The British group will kick off the outing Oct. 16 in Cambridge, MA. The 20-city trek heads to the West Coast later in the month, then returns eastward via the Midwest to conclude Nov. 15 in New York City. Dates are below.

The group enlisted Black Francis of The Pixies to produce "Art Brut Vs. Satan," the band's third studio album and the follow-up to 2007's "It's a Bit Complicated." The album hit stores in April.

"It was amazing, I was so glad when he agreed to do it," frontman Eddie Argos told ClashMusic.com earlier this year. "I thought I would be intimidated, because it’s Black Francis you know? But it wasn’t, it was amazing. He picked us up at the airport in his car, and he’s just such a friendly enthusiastic man. It’s hard to be intimidated by him, really, as he’s just a good person."

The album's first single, "Alcoholics Unanimous," also surfaced in April. The video for the song is currently linked at the band's website.
