Universal Audio is the fifth and final studio album by Scottish rock band the Delgados, released 20 September 2004 through Chemikal Underground. While touring in support of their fourth studio album Hate, the band members felt disconnected from the live shows due to bringing extra musicians with them. They recorded their next album at Chem19 studios in Hamilton, Scotland, with Tony Doogan and the band splitting the producing role. Universal Audio is a pop album that strips away the orchestral rock sound of Hate and their third studio album The Great Eastern. Universal Audio received universal acclaim from critics, many of whom highlighted its stripped-down sound, while retaining high-quality songwriting. It charted at number 49 in Scotland, and number 105 in the UK. Its lead single "Everybody Come Down" peaked at number 56 in Scotland, and number 67 in the UK. The second single, "Girls of Valour", charted at number 98 in the UK. "Everybody Come Down" was released on 6 September 2004, which was followed by a tour of the United Kingdom.
