Life Without Sound is the radiant fourth full-length Cloud Nothings have recorded since Dylan Baldi began writing and releasing songs under the alias in 2008. While its highly acclaimed predecessor, 2014'€™s Here And Nowhere Else, came together spontaneously in the little time that touring allowed, Life Without Sound took shape under far less frenetic circumstances.  

For more than a year, Baldi was able to write these songs and flesh out them out with his bandmates, before they finally joined producer John Goodmanson (Sleater Kinney, Death Cab For Cutie) at Sonic Ranch in El Paso, Texas for three weeks in March of 2016. The result is Baldi'€™s most polished and considered work to date, an album that speaks to his evolving gift with melody while also betraying the sort of perspective that time provides.

"€œA thing I like to do with all of my records is drive around with them,"€ Baldi says. "€œIn high school, I would listen to music for hours like that: just driving through the suburbs of Cleveland. And if it sounds good to me in that context and I can think of high school me listening to it and saying, '€˜that'€™s okay,'€™ I feel good about the record. This is the one that'€™s felt best."

This LP format is pressed on green and white marbled vinyl, and includes a poster featuring one of three randomly selected designs.
