BREAKFAST BASTARD

No ratings yet

Breakfast Bastard's self-titled debut album is an audio-visual concept album that combines original music, original / bootlegged video, and visual iconography to explore themes of cultural identity, generational trauma, civic frustration, and nostalgia. The breakfast roll functions as the project's central visual motif: a symbol of indulgence, convenience, and contemporary Irish identity. Musically, the album draws from post-punk, lo-fi pop, techno, and instrumental hip-hop. Some of its tracks include a techno composition featuring Michael D. Higgins thanking artists, an ode to the teenage years framed as a love song to piracy, and a look at the present through fictional romances with inanimate objects, bots, and AI companions.
