Mitski - The Land Is Inhospitable And So Are We

 

2023 release from singer-songwriter Mitski on Dead Oceans

Sometimes, singer-songwriter Mitski feels life would be easier without hope, or a soul, or love. But when she closes her eyes and thinks about what's truly hers, what can't be repossessed or demolished, she sees love.

"The best thing I ever did in my life was to love people," she says. "I wish I could leave behind all the love I have after I die, so I can shine all this goodness, all this good love that I've created onto other people."

She hopes her newest album, The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, will shine love long after she's gone. That's precisely how it feels: like a love that's haunting the land.

The new album is accompanied by the A.G. Rojas-directed "My Love Mine All Mine" video. "My Love Mine All Mine" is an instant classic, hailed by Exclaim! as "both heartbreaking and hopeful, the kind of careful balance that Mitski has fine tuned in the decade since her debut." It's the beating heart of the album, wherein the singer imagines their love shining down on the earth from the moon, long after the speaker is gone.
