Podcast: Formed a Band with Eddie Argos of Art Brut and Paul Malmont

Posted by Maximum Fun on 12th August 2006

This week on The Sound of Young America, we’ve FORMED A BAND! Whether it’s for rocking or for adventure, it’s best to work in groups.

Paul Malmont is the author of the rollicking novel “The Chinatown Death Cloud Peril.” The book follows writers Walter Gibson (“The Shadow”), Lester Dent (“Doc Savage”) and L. Ron Hubbard (“Dianetics”) as they fight their way through 1930s America. The three authors are locked in a battle with Chinese tongs, dangerous dames, and their own sense of artistic integrity, as they race to find the ending to one of the greatest unfinished stories ever told. Bonus: hear Malmont read from the book below!

Eddie Argos is the lead singer and writer for Art Brut. The band’s energetic sound, wry lyrics and rock & roll spirit have endeared them to the indie rock world. Their first LP, “Bang Bang Rock & Roll” was recently released in the US, along with the singles “Formed a Band” and “Emily Kane.” They’ve also started franchising the band, and there are spinoff Art Bruts all over the world.
