Pre-order for “The Cosmic Selector Vol.1” by Lord Huron

Lord Huron – the project of Los Angeles-based songwriter, musician and visual artist Ben Schneider – releases their new album, The Cosmic Selector Vol. 1, via Mercury Records, along with the new single, “Looking Back.” Known for creating “atmospheric music of exquisite craft” (Wall Street Journal), the band began teasing the album in early 2025 with the singles, “Who Laughs Last” and “Nothing I Need.” Lord Huron’s fifth album was written and coproduced by Schneider. Alongside Schneider are band members Tom Renaud, Mark Barry and Miguel Briseño, and a host of collaborators, including actress Kristen Stewart and Blonde Redhead’s Kazu Makino. The album title references the mysterious machine featured on the cover art. Schneider asks: “What if you could choose your fate like choosing a song on a jukebox? What if your finger slipped and you got the B-side instead? What if you misunderstood the meaning of the dang song to begin with?”

PRE-ORDER DISCLAIMER: Release dates are tentative and often get pushed back or cancelled by the labels. We try 100% to get you what you order, but there are times when we aren’t allotted enough of the item to fill all of the orders (and usually we won’t know this until the week of the release). In this case we will contact you as soon as we are aware that the order can’t be fulfilled. Special limited/indie exclusive releases can be ordered in multiples, but we can’t guarantee that we will be able to fill more than one copy of each said release.

Pre-orders are essentially “special orders”. This means if you place a pre-order, we are ordering it specially for you (many items we have up for pre-order are not items we carry in our store, and those that we do, we are ordering EXTRA copies to fill your pre-orders). Because of this, we cannot do cancellations or refunds after the pre-ordering time period has ended.
