The Cosmic Selector Vol. 1 is Lord Huron's fifth album. It was written and co-produced by Schneider, and it features band members Tom Renaud, Mark Barry and Miguel Briseño, and a host of collaborators, including actress Kristen Stewart (on ‘Who Laughs Last') and Blonde Redhead’s Kazu Makino (on ‘Fire Eternal'). 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?”
