On their third album, this huge-in-Sweden Canuck trio once again temper their comically belligerent, AC/DC-charged garage metal with hooks perfectly suited for the stripper pole or the fashion runway. But this time, not only would the eponymous frontman rip his nuts off for you, if you've got a sweet tooth, then he's your chocolate bar. Easy, ladies.

Wittier than any Brit this side of Ricky Gervais, frontman Eddie Argos testifies loudly, like a karaoke drunk with a head cold, but his stories always sing, and his frisky band of London pros never fail to fire up the precise boilerplate punk riff to roil the plot. This U.S. release of Art Brut's 2005 debut album adds three intriguing, if sketchy, new tracks.
