Aug 11, 2014Taking common inspiration and twisting it into their own shape, Childhood have concocted a debut that’s more than capable of standing up to the rougher approach of their geographical peers. In doing so, they've uncovered a diamond.
-
Aug 8, 2014The pace is often just a little slower than you expect, or than feels natural, which allows those hooks room to breathe and creates the slightly stoned, beatific air that permeates Lacuna.
-
Aug 8, 2014Perhaps most impressively, is the record’s consistent hooks.
-
Aug 8, 2014It’s clear that, especially now they’ve released Lacuna, Childhood are indeed making the right kind of noises that’ll ably assist them in making that important career leap from dreamy infancy to artistic maturity.

Aug 11, 2014A promising debut with a few flashes of brilliance, Lacuna is an appealingly summery set of songs despite a few lulls in its energy.
-
Aug 12, 2014With Boyhood [the Richard Linklater film], you grow invested in the characters as they evolve over 12 years; you can enjoy the flow of Lacuna just as much, but in the 11 songs here, you just wish there was some character to begin with.
