Plus de bruit

Jean-Paul has been running Plus de Bruit for 17 years, and is an unmistakable figure in the neighbourhood – his store is always full of regulars come to see what’s new in stock since their last visit. A rare pressing of a Standells compilation, indie rock vinyl from the ’90s, French punk bands… you can spend hours rummaging for treasure in the racks, which you’ll usually end up getting for a more than reasonable price. Jean-Paul makes a point of keeping his prices low – €7 for a CD of a new release, around €10 for vinyl – which only increases the shop’s reputation.

On the walls are several dozen collectors LPs from the ’50s up to today, and photos of clients with their fetish vinyl. For several years, Plus de Bruit has also offered a large selection of graphic novels, which attracts its own clientele – also tempted by the low prices – in search of rare titles and new issues.
