The Land Is Inhospitable & So Are We [Robin Egg Blue Vinyl] (LP)
Mitski
Amoeba Review
Mitski's The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We is simply stunning. Opener "Bug Like an Angel" finds power and transcendence in spite of deep pain, with unforgettable lyrics about dead bugs looking like angels and broken promises that break you in return. "Heaven" feels like just that: opening with a gentle country twang, it's one of those magical songs that perfectly encapsulates a moment that's inexpressible in mere words. "Star" has a lullaby-like comfort, conveying solace and hope in spite of all the costs of living and loving. This is one of Mitski's best, an album as grand and sweeping and deeply romantic as the experience of life itself.
