Art Brut's Eddie Argos teams up with Black Box Recorder for Christmas single

Art Brut's Eddie Argos has teamed up with Black Box Recorder to create The Black Arts, and they will release their first single together on 3 Dec. It's called 'Christmas Number One' and, you guessed it, Argos is hoping the single may live up to its title. Though I suspect that ambition may go the same way of his dream to appear on Top Of The Pops "eight weeks in a row". In that he won't achieve it, not that they'll axe the Christmas Number One. Though with Fearne Cotton now hosting Radio 1's chart show, it wouldn't surprise me if the whole chart thing wasn't axed before the end of the year. Cotton does have that effect on things you know, her being the most useless irritating presenter in the history of British broadcasting and all.
