With vocals generally pushing upper registers, drums usually programmed instead of banged, and a willingness to go big and lush with its production and electronic instruments, Peter Bjorn & John make no attempt to be anything but pure Euro (Skando?) pop on Breakin' Point.
But poppy never means simple here. The songs can only support the many layers of polish on top because there's a whole lot going on underneath. And if that wasn't enough, Breakin' Point is just a plain old great time. Who'd have thought three Swedes pushing middle age could do pop so well?
