Recording


Young initially called Daniel Lanois in early 2010 with the request to make an acoustic album, after seeing videos on the internet of Lanois and engineer Mark Howard working on Black Dub. The recording took place at a makeshift studio set up at Lanois's Silverlake house. While attempting to record "Hitchhiker", a song written back in the 1970s and finished during the sessions, Young decided that it felt more appropriate to play on an electric guitar. While two songs, "Love and War" and "Peaceful Valley Boulevard", remained in acoustic form, Young did the rest of the album on electric guitar, with Howard and Lanois applying dub techniques they had developed while working on Black Dub. A distinctive guitar sound was achieved by Young playing a Gretsch White Falcon with stereo pickups through two Fender Deluxe amplifiers, and treated with Eventide H3500 subharmonic generator. Both guitar and voice were treated with delay effects from the Lexicon Prime Time and the TC Electronics Fireworks; Lanois and Howard applied the effects in real time, with Young able to hear the results through the monitoring system. According to Howard, "when you stood in the centre of the room, it was the best sound you've ever heard, it was incredible. We had those speakers going at full tilt, and when you put your hand on the walls, they were shaking. It was almost earthquake material! [...] Neil was pushing us, saying, 'Hey guys, that's great, just take it to the next level. Give me more of that!' So after recording, we went in there again with most songs and caught certain words and phrases and dubbed them".[9]

The original version of "Hitchhiker", recorded in 1976, would be released in 2017 on an archival album of the same name.


Release


On August 20, Young revealed the upcoming album and its release date stating that it would be a solo album.[10] Le Noise was released on September 28 on CD, vinyl, Blu-ray and digitally. Accompanying the album was a black and white film of live-in-studio performances of all the songs, shot by Adam CK Vollick; it was released on YouTube as well as in DVD format. Videos for "Angry World",[11] "Hitchhiker",[12] "Love And War"[13] and "Walk With Me"[14] were premiered separately before the album release.

The track "Angry World" won a Grammy Award for Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance.[15]


Outtakes


A number of songs recorded during the sessions didn't make it to the final album; these recordings were premiered in August 2019 as a part of The Complete Le Noise Sessions film which was available for streaming for 24 hours on Neil Young Archives website. "Born in Ontario", "Twisted Road" and "For the Love of Man" would be later re-recorded with Crazy Horse for Psychedelic Pill, while "You Never Call" (a tribute to recently deceased L.A. Johnson, a longtime associate of Young) was frequently performed live during the tour in support of the album and appears on concert film Neil Young Journeys.


Critical reception


Le Noise received generally positive reviews with Uncut magazine proclaiming it as the second best album of 2010 in its year-end Top 50 Albums list. This album was number 20 on Rolling Stone's list of the 30 Best Albums of 2010.[16]

The album was named as a longlisted nominee for the 2011 Polaris Music Prize.[17]


Commercial performance


The album was placed 2nd on the Canadian Albums Chart, selling over 10,000 copies in the first week of release.[18]
