Brodka releases her latest album, Brut, via [PIAS] Recordings. The LP examines gender, self-image and society over 11 tracks (42 min, 16 sec)...

For those not familiar with Monika Brodka, she is a Polish artist who won 2004's Pop Idol (Poland). Brut is her fifth studio album.

Brut is a modern pop-rock album that contains more than its fair share of stand out tracks that shine through as singles in their own right. In truth there's nothing here that you'd deem "b" side material. Much like her 2016 release, Clashes, it's diverse and memorable.

Highlights include 'Game Change', 'Falling In To You', 'You Think You Know Me' and fruits. Once again this is an album that you'll still be digging out in years to come.
