Lonesome Dreams, the debut album from Ben Schneider's Lord Huron, came out on Iamsound in the US on October 9, 2012, and it plays like a paperback western read by lamplight. The Los Angeles band stirs country, folk rock, surf guitar and old-fashioned rock and roll into something wide-screen and wistful, all reverb, campfire glow and dusty horizons.
Schneider built the whole thing around a concept: a set of old adventure yarns, with a pulp-fiction flavor he wanted the videos to match. The band shot a run of clips in a retro western style that carried the album's story, and even put out a theatrical cut of them. He has also pointed to one specific work as a touchstone, The Collected Works of Billy the Kid: Left-Handed Poems. It entered Billboard's Heatseekers Albums chart at No. 5.
