Childhood<\/strong>‘s highly-anticipated second album ‘Universal High‘<\/em>\u00a0is out today via\u00a0Marathon Artists<\/em>. It’s the middle of summer, there’s nothing more relaxing than listening to new material by a gang of London lads that have roamed the scene for quite some time<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    Spearheaded by\u00a0Ben Romans-Hopscraft, Childhood\u00a0<\/strong>have been putting the finishing touches to a welcomed second album and teasing us with great sounds since the begining of the year. Today marks the full release of “Universal High” produced with\u00a0the legendary\u00a0Ben H Allen III , who evidently happened to also collaborate with no other than Gnarls Barkley, Animal Collective and Deerhunter… That’s to give you the breadth of how much skill has gone into the record.<\/p>\n

    This new album also showcases the band’s limitless songwriting capabilities. In any case, if you have been following these lads since the beginning with \u00a0their ‘Lacuna’ debut<\/a>, you won’t be surprised. With elevated tracks such as “Solemn Skies” and “Falls Away” (watch further down) on their dub-charged psychedelic indie debut ‘Lacuna’<\/a>, it was only a matter of seconds for them to go global and start touring internationally as well as having a great entourage around them to channel all the talent into something rather special. And that day as finally arrived. Today a coherent, creative and beautifully built album sees the light of day with amazingly evocative tracks such as “Californian Lights”,”Monitor” and “Nothing Ever Seems Right”.<\/p>\n
