Later in 2014, Glassnote announced that they had signed Son Lux worldwide. In 2014, Son Lux released the extended play Alternate Worlds, which contained re-imagined songs from Lanterns, including a version of "Easy" with vocal contributions from Lorde. The lead single "Lost It To Trying" was named one of Pitchfork's Best New Tracks. It includes vocals from then label-mate Stranger Cat, the musical project of Cat Martino. Lanterns was then released on October 29, 2013. After the announcement of Lott joining Joyful Noise, the project released "TEAR", a conceptual 7" featuring one new song in two distinct parts.

Son Lux signed with Joyful Noise Recordings in May 2013, the same month that their "haunting rendition" of "Black Waters" was featured in the epnoymous flexi-disc series released by Joyful Noise. Adam Kivel, writing for Consequence of Sound, described the album as "the dark, operatic middle ground between Owen Pallett and In Rainbows-era Radiohead or Wild Beasts' fantastic, operatic heights." Lott then released the second album We Are Rising on May 17, 2011, recorded in the entire month of February for the RPM Challenge. Following this release, NPR named Son Lux "Best New Artist" on their program All Songs Considered. Their debut studio album, At War with Walls & Mazes, was released in March of that same year. Son Lux started in 2008 as the moniker and solo recording project of American musician and composer Ryan Lott.
