Gatefold Sleeve, Coloured Vinyl
Whole World As Vigil, the new album from Lauren Auder, opens with a proclamation. “Let greed in,” Auder declares. It’s an invitation to what can happen when you embrace life in all of its euphoria, desperation and endless possibility. While 2023 debut the infinite spine, released via True Panther, explored Auder coming to terms with her own identity, here the world is showcased by another set of fresh eyes: inspired by a romantic relationship, the songs bottle up not only the electrifying sheen of being in love, but what it then forces you to examine and consider.

London-based Lauren Auder is a British-French singer-songwriter, record producer and composer who stitches together elements of classical, experimental, emo, and rap music into her own strange and hypnotic form of orchestral pop music. With the likes of Celeste, Caroline Polachek, Mura Masa, Boris and Jeshi all on her credits list, as well as composing music for Virgil Abloh’s Louis Vuitton campaigns, and modelling for Marni, Gucci and Celine, Auder has cemented herself as an auteur across the worlds of music and fashion.
