After the hit “The Night We Met” was featured in Netflix's 13 Reasons Why, Lord Huron's fanbase grew exponentially. Their third full - length album, Vide Noir, is a treat for both old fans and newbies. This album, whose title means ‘black void' in French, has an overarching concept woven into its rich and vast sonic world. The narrator tells a story of loss, longing, obsession, and dark thoughts starting with the nihilistic “Lost In Time And Space” and keeps the intensity high throughout. Mixed by Dave Fridmann, known for his work with Tame Impala, Flaming Lips, and Mercury Rev, Vide Noir sets a new sonic standard for rock albums. Ben Schneider's heartfelt songwriting, combined with Fridmann's mixing skills, gives these songs great replay value on turntables and at festivals this summer. You'll enjoy warm, clear vocals, punchy drums, and thumping bass, all wrapped in the band's signature sepia - tinted atmosphere. It comes as a double vinyl pressing in a gatefold sleeve.

Using this double vinyl album is easy. Just place it gently on your turntable, lower the needle carefully, and enjoy the music. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting dirt or fingerprints on it. Store the album in a cool, dry place to prevent warping. When not in use, keep it in its gatefold sleeve to protect it from scratches. If you notice any dust on the vinyl, use a soft, anti - static brush to clean it before playing. That way, you can keep enjoying the great music of Lord Huron's Vide Noir for a long time.
