Hold On Now, Youngster...
About this Album
Hold On Now, Youngster... is the debut album by Los Campesinos!, released in the UK on Wichita Recordings on 22 February 2008, with a North American release on Arts & Crafts that April.[1] It was recorded in 2007, largely with producer David Newfeld, and mixed mostly by John Goodmanson.[1]
Critics were broadly positive, and the record holds a score of 81 on Metacritic from 29 reviews.[1] One writer compared its single-minded fixation on sexual frustration to the Violent Femmes' debut, and described its mood as giddy and communal.[2] A tenth-anniversary deluxe edition arrived in October 2018.[1]
