Since German brothers Lennart and Felix Eicke, Jakob Amr, Djamin Izadi and JP Neumann released Leoniden’s sophomore debut album, a lot has happened: the band started their own record label, won the New Music Award in their home land, played a lot of gigs and toured with Franz Ferdinand.

Meanwhile, they managed to record their second album, Again (out on 26 October 2018). Kids, a song about living in the now, is the first single off it. A poppy rock song you can dance to.
