Politics

Politics was released by Record Makers and Astralwerks, with Frederick N'Landu and Philippe Zdar mixing and Noel Summerville mastering; the label's biography dates it 2005, probably the UK release. Wikipedia lists the genres as lounge, orchestral pop and psychedelic pop, and the label's biography adds the Bulgarian Symphony Orchestra, Quentin Dupieux and Zdar as supporting talents. It reached 26 on the UK dance albums chart and 50 on the UK independent albums chart in 2005.

AllMusic gave it 3 out of 5, Der Spiegel 6 of 10, Ondarock 6.5 and Tiny Mix Tapes 3 of 5, calling "La Ritournelle" the album's best showing, a rough gem. Exclaim's Cam Lindsay wrote in 2006 that the single was one of the loveliest pop singles of the last decade.
