Condition: Brand New Ships from: Melbourne Description Release details Tracklist HighSchool, the duo of Rory Trobbiani and Luke Scott, are preparing to release their self-titled debut album on October 31. Produced by Ben Hillier (Blur, Depeche Mode) and Finn Bellingham (RIP Magic, Sam Akpro, Sunken) and recorded between London, Lewes (East Sussex) and Melbourne, HighSchool is an intoxicating delivery of 80s post-punk with reflections of alternative revivalism. Meticulous in its construction, the album is a vivid coming-of-age soundtrack that plays on the band’s name for its core theme, fusing post-punk, slowcore and alternative revivalism across twelve deeply personal tracks. Of the release, HighSchool share "When you’re young and dumb, everything hits harder… love, hate, boredom, desire. It all feels sacred somehow. Then you grow up and it fades. Maybe that’s why everyone romanticises youth. This album is forty-two minutes of trying to feel that again." Including the previously released early-days rush ‘149’, euphoric tension of ‘Dipped’ and ode digital-age romance in ‘Sony Ericsson’, HighSchool is an album steeped in youthful restlessness. From tender moments of small town reflections in ‘American Aunty’ to the Beck and Pavement-influenced ‘Peter’s Room’, HighSchool’s wall of sound celebrates the undercurrents that run beneath seemingly ordinary teenage lives and suburban settings. 1.
