Build a problem

"Her gik jeg ellers lige og troede, at min tålmodighed med unge sangerinder, der ikke "gider" synge, men hellere vil hviske mig i øret, var opbrugt. Men så var der alligevel et eller andet ved 25-årige Dodie Clark fra Essex i England, der fik mig til at spidse ører. Nu, efter en uge med Dodie på repeat, er jeg solgt! ... Hun får sine fem stjerner, fordi jeg har følt mig godt underholdt og ind imellem direkte rørt, mens jeg har lyttet til hendes album. Det er simpelthen et pissegodt album, og det skal I da høre".

"Although Dodie Clark came to fame for her chatty and intimate viral videos, she proves the exception to the rule about internet stars making terrible music. Her debut studio album spotlights the sparse and self-conscious folk-pop she's been making for nearly a decade".

"Build A Problem indeed finds dodie at her most open and fully realised, building an inward world of startling beauty for longtime fans and newcomers alike to explore. It looks at dodie from every angle, finding her at her most broken, joyous, angry and reflective, among instrumentals that capture the same conflicting pulls. Where Build A Problem succeeds most is translating these struggles into towering drama, making music to listen to closely, feel deeply, and champion loudly".

"The minimalism of Dodie's songs gracefully juxtaposes their sophistication, helping to illuminate the many revelatory pop moments that can be heard throughout Build a Problem".
