Explaining the concept behind Art Brut vs Satan, Argos has said; "With the first album, we were at our jobs still, so we were in studio at separate times and didn’t see each other the whole time. I thought that was kind of weird. On the It's A Bit Complicated, we tried to make a pop album and were tracking it individually as well, but we realized we’re a punk band and wanted to do this album live for the first time and went into a room and bashed it out and pressed record and often went with the first take
Full of the kind of bathetic genius English pop used to excel in, Art Brut are life-affirming - and are worth 500 of almost every other new guitar band. 88. As good as much of the new British rock can be, it is experiencing a creeping seriousness these days. It's a Bit Complicated" is a welcome corrective. 80. Complicated shows a real grasp of musical history.
It's A Bit Complicated is the second album by Art Brut, following 2005's Bang Bang Rock and Roll. Frontman Eddie Argos claims the new record is poppier than its predecessor and it's partly true - the melodies are real pop now, but hard-hitting rock drums stayed (and thank you God!) Guitar riffs are generic three-chords and often predictable. A few solos on the whole album are three-notes and two-strings diverse.

If Art Brut’s second album’s execution was as impressive as it is ambitious, then the band would already be single-handedly resurrecting TOTP, but it’s not as simple as that. The good news is that singer Eddie Argos’s clever wit and knack for a well-turned phrase remains in place, not only in the opener’s 'Is it so wrong, to break from your kiss to turn up a pop song?' but also, for example, with St Pauli ’s 'Sorry if my accent’s flawed, I learned my German from a. seven-inch record'. On the evidence given (and despite protestations to the contrary), it’s fair to say that the band is still too clever, ironic and yes, a bit too complicated for the kind of mass adulation they apparently wish for.
