Mount Eerie Announces New Album 'Night Palace' with "World's Record for Largest Album Cover"
Hear "Broom of Wind" and "I Walk" now
There are a couple of unique physical editions for Night Palace. One is a book of the lyrics (plus a limited run of just 26 hardcover books, available for paid subscribers of Elverum's newsletter).
There's also a 2LP vinyl version, which comes "packaged in a humongous poster that folds into a wrapping kind of LP jacket." It's 43 inches by 62 inches — a little more than three and a half feet by five feet. Elverum called it "maybe the world's record for largest album cover," even bigger than the last time he released a huge poster like this, on 2005's No Flashlight. He wrote, "This poster is admittedly way too big. You might need to move to a different house in order to hang it on the wall."
It's available to pre-order here.
Hear the new songs below, including a video for "Broom of Wind." The tracklist for Night Palace is below that. The previously released compilation track "Huge Fire" is included. He has a small handful of shows scheduled, all in the US.
