Universal High
“Reinventions are the flavour of 2017. Calvin Harris has ditched EDM for disco, Noel Fielding swapped goth attire for nice jumpers and cakes on GBBO, and Jeremy Corbyn proved to be one of the most galvanising politicians in a generation. Now Childhood continue the trend. Their debut, 2014’s ‘Lacuna’, was a shoegaze-infused slice of indie-pop, hinting at something more exploratory. But a full-blown ”
Universal High
“Some records manage to instantly dissolve cynicism like sugar in acid. Childhood’s ‘Universal High’ (Ben Romans-Hopcraft’s reinvention from indie band leader to solo act) is a summertime blast of good-time, tune-heavy joy that wears its soul influences like a poster board. ‘A.M.D’ is open-top road music, a shimmering chorus carried by falsetto vocals, while ‘Too Old For My Tears’ is a great blast ”
Universal High
“Childhood’s Universal High is an infectious rush of soul, funk and pop music”
Lacuna
“Childhood recall approximately two dozen different bands during Lacuna, which is key to the British band's appeal. The flow of their Dan Carey-produced debut is easy to enjoy, but you might end up wishing there was some character to these eleven songs.”
