Mitski has quietly — very, very quietly — teased that she’s completed her next studio album, and that its first single will be out Wednesday, July 26th.
In a voice memo sent to fans via email, the musician announced that her follow-up to 2022’s Laurel Hell will be titled The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, and it was recorded at Nashville’s Bomb Shelter Studios. She did not reveal a release date for the record or any further details. You can listen to the memo for yourself below.
Since Laurel Hell, Mitski teamed up with David Byrne for “This is a Life,” their contribution to the soundtrack for Everything Everywhere All at Once. It was nominated for Best Original Song at that year’s Oscars.
