Mitski’s seventh studio album, The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, has arrived. Stream the album below. Update: To coincide with the album’s release, Mitski has also shared a new video for “My Love Mine All Mine.”
Spanning 11 tracks, The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We features many of the things you would expect from a Mitski album, like production from longtime-collaborator, Patrick Hyland, thoughtful songwriting, and brilliant moments of catharsis. Yet, focusing on the inescapable contradiction of love and isolation, she reaches some of her most profound musings, with impactful arrangements to match the mood.
In his review, Consequence’s Jonah Krueger celebrated the project for being Mitski’s “most comforting, hopeful yet.” Explaining that she finds solace in the heartache of loss, Krueger writes that the overarching theme of the album endows the listener with invaluable emotional tools, and looks past sorrow to find strength.

Mitski has a soft spot for Mexico City. In 2022, her last two live performances of the year were there, one being a stop on her Laurel Hell tour and the other being a festival set at Corona Capital. On Friday, the singer will release her seventh studio album, The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, but because her love for Mexico City runs so deep, those who got tickets to the intimate show she held there on Monday have already heard it.

With last year’s Laurel Hell, Mitski elaborated on the eclectic, ’80s-influenced sounds of 2018’s Be the Cowboy, synthesizing the lessons she’d learned from her earlier work about multi-instrumental songwriting and thematic cohesiveness. “According to that pattern,” Mitski told Apple Music at the time, “the next thing I’ll do will be completely different.” Indeed, her seventh album, The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, delivers on that promise, adapting her poignant lyricism to the acoustic strings and traditionally rural setting of country music.
As always, Mitski’s music aches with longing, and by leaning into a bleak vision of the heartland, she unlocks a gothic sense of dread. “Bug Like an Angel” opens the album with the gory image of a bug stuck to the bottom of a glass. Accompanied only by an acoustic guitar, Mitski sounds like a lonesome country balladeer, or the drinker on the...

Indie fans rejoiced on Monday when Mitski reactivated her social media accounts and announced a new album. And now we get a first glimpse of The Land Is Inhospitable And So Are We, out September 15, with its first single.
“Bug Like an Angel” opens with cozy acoustic guitar, and in typical Mitski fashion, the track has a tightly-packed first verse with a gut-punch kicker: “Sometimes a drink feels like family.” Then a choir enters, reiterating, “Family!”
The single is accompanied by a video directed by Noel Paul, which features an...

If you want to attract a younger audience, you have to watch what they watch. Not what you think they are watching, says producer Dean Devlin, best known for “Independence Day” and “Stargate.” But he never designs his shows for one market.
“It’s no longer all about gender or age demographic. If you go to a sci-fi convention, they are not just kids, they are not just older people. It’s everybody!”
At Berlinale Series Market Selects, which runs as part of the European Film Market in Berlin, with his latest show, sci-fi series “The Ark,” Devlin continues to pay homage to the kind of stories he loved as a child, from Douglas Trumbull’s “Silent Running” to “The Omega Man.”
“I don’t pay any attention to trends. When we did ‘Stargate,’ every studio in Hollywood said that science fiction was dead. And then we had a hit,...

The first two seasons of "Seinfeld" have a bit of a rocky start. There are some undeniably brilliant episodes in those early days, such as "The Chinese Restaurant," "The Phone Message," and "The Deal," but it was not until season 3 that basically every single episode was an absolute banger. It is not uncommon for shows to take a bit of time to find their footing. How many times have you heard, "Once it gets to this episode, the show gets really great," in your life? Too many to count, I'm assuming. "Seinfeld" is no exception there.
Season 3 makes it seem like it was very far into the run of "Seinfeld" that it got good, but the first and second seasons only had 17 episodes combined. This was their first full order, 23-episode season. The cast and the writers were still massaging who these characters were and their relationships with one another,...

Michael Sheen recently went viral for an epic ‘pre-match’ speech to the Welsh football team on A League of Their Own – so much so that he was actually invited to address the Welsh World Cup squad for real – but anyone who’s seen a Michael Sheen role won’t have been remotely surprised he had such a rousing monologue in him.
The man has range, charisma, and an extraordinary talent for channelling the characteristics of real people without resorting to impersonation.
