Young Hunger [LP]

U.S. vinyl LP pressing. Jonquil member Hugo Manuel's solo project Chad Valley has a 2012 album released through Cascine in the US, titled Young Hunger. The release is his debut full-length and follows up the Equatorial Ultravox EP that blew up our headphones last year. The album is an epic 80s Synthpop journey of lush, sparkling tracks with vocals that bring to mind Tears for Fears. It features guest appearances by indie pop heavyweights Twin Shadow, Active Child, El Perro Del Mar, and Glasser.
