The Zara Larsson Midnight Sun vinyl pressing on EPIC Records (catalog EPIC 9332018) brings her 2025 album to crystal clear wax, and it is a format worthy of the record inside it. Larsson has been a presence in global pop since her early teens, building a multi-platinum catalogue across multiple albums and accumulating a following that spans continents. She has long been one of Sweden’s most successful pop exports, and Midnight Sun represents a genuine step forward in what is already a substantial career.
Nearly Two Decades in the Making: Zara Larsson Midnight Sun Vinyl
What makes this album stand out in Larsson’s discography is the level of creative investment behind it. Recorded with frequent collaborator MNEK, producer Margo XS, and songwriter Helena Gao, Midnight Sun was built over the course of a year with real intention. The result is a record that lets Larsson be contradictory, lovestruck and cocky, wistful and flippant, often within the same track. That kind of emotional range is not easy to pull off in pop without it feeling calculated, but the storytelling here carries genuine weight. Larsson is 27 years old and has spent nearly her entire life in the public eye. This album does not shy away from what that means.
Pressing Details and Format
This is a standard LP release on EPIC Records, pressed on crystal clear vinyl. The clear format suits the album well. Midnight Sun has a cleanness to its production that reads differently on a transparent pressing than it would on black wax. You can see the grooves, the run-out, the whole physical architecture of the record. The catalog number is EPIC 9332018. Clear pressings of major pop releases tend to move quickly and are rarely repressed in this configuration once initial stock clears, so this is not a format that sticks around indefinitely.
Why This Copy Belongs in Your Collection
Collectors who follow contemporary pop on vinyl know that major label clear pressings are not always guaranteed on every release. When a significant artist issues a high-profile album in a coloured or clear format, that variant typically becomes the one to have. This is Larsson’s most ambitious album to date, built with collaborators who have serious credits across the wider pop landscape, and it arrived in a format that reflects that ambition. If you follow modern pop seriously, or if you simply want a well-produced 2025 album that actually has something to say pressed on a format that looks as good as it sounds, this is the copy to get.
