    The results are atmospheric, rough around the edges but captivating, unique and extraordinary.

    Easily one of the best debuts of 2012-or 2022, for that matter.

    While their vision may to many appear decidedly singular, the music itself is highly accessible and polished, and comes with a sense of being a carefully considered, fully fledged complete package.
  4. It's broodingly impactful stuff, only hampered by the kind of self-parodically indie-kid vocals that remain in a permanent state of posturing ennui.

  1. Breton arrive avec Other People's Problems qui est sans doute l'un des albums de ce début d'année. Inventif, ce collectif l'est, mêlant rock, Hip Hop, electo, electronica (2 Years). On à l'impression de parfois entendre LCD Soundsystem, Foals, The Streets, Portishead mais non il s'agit bien ici de Breton. Féliciations à ce collectif. Expand
  2. On "Other People's Problems" especially surprises a large number of instrumental inserts combined with fairly bass beats - inventions applied in the songs "Pacemaker", "Electrician" or on the other hand the mix of electronic motives: "Wood and Plastic", "Governing Correctly" adding some alternative overtones. The whole, however is hard to accept because of the artist's vocal. Or rather, decent lack of it. Collapse
