Orville Peck – Stampede (2xLP)

Stampede, released as a double LP, shows Orville Peck broadening his scope while staying rooted in his signature mix of outlaw country, crooning ballads, and cinematic atmosphere. The masked singer pushes into new territory with expansive arrangements, blending pedal steel and twang with lush strings and widescreen production. Songs like How Far Will We Take It and Western Eyes highlight his deep baritone against sweeping backdrops, carrying both intimacy and grandeur.

At the same time, the record preserves the lonesome mood and storytelling that first set Peck apart. His themes of longing, identity, and wide-open landscapes are delivered with drama and tenderness, making Stampede feel both theatrical and deeply personal. Presented across two LPs, the album gives Peck room to stretch out creatively, confirming his place as one of country’s most distinctive and adventurous voices.
