From last.fm:
There are three artists with this name: 1) Maudlin is a sludge band from Belgium. In 2009 Maudlin, willing to take over the world, becomes .maudlin (with a dot) because of existing bands with the same. "In a genre overwhelmed with sad bands, MAUDLIN may be the saddest of them all. It’s difficult to describe feelings we ain’t familiar with. The sadness, anger and depression the band has gone through is reflected in the repetitive, yet very powerful song structure. Sometimes it feels like MAUDLIN only has one friend: their instruments. Read more about Maudlin on Last.fm.

The Brutes
From Minneapolis
First show since since October 14, 2011 • First Amsterdam show • 44th show on MN Live's calendar since March 14, 2006
From last.fm:
Minnesota's The Brutes have cultivated their garage-influenced modern rock for about three years. Songs inspired by artists like The Kinks, David Bowie and The Strokes explore the underpinnings of the human condition, and how just beneath the civilized person lies a savage beast. The band's first self-release, The Brutes EP, included the song "This Science Works For Us", which was featured in the season one finale episode of MTV's The Jersey Shore. The band's follow-up full length album Wonderous Punch is currently on CMJ's Top 200 chart, with a forthcoming tour being planned for the spring. The Brutes on Last.fm.
