Mitski released a new album, The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We, last year via Dead Oceans. Now she has shared a new video for the album’s “Star.” Maegan Houang directed the video. Watch it below, followed by Mitski’s upcoming tour dates.

Houang had this to say about the video in a press release: “Unlike the more narrative/concept driven videos Mitski and I have done together in the past, I wanted this video to encapsulate the impressionistic circularity we all experience. Our lives oscillate between light and dark repeating itself in an endless cycle where nothing is permanent. The best moments are fleeting, but so are the bad.”

Mitksi previously shared a music video for the album’s lead single, “Bug Like an Angel,” which was one of our Songs of the Week. Then she shared two more new songs from it, “Heaven” and “Star.” “Heaven” was one of our Songs of the Week. When the album was released she shared a video for the album’s “My Love All Mine.”

Mitski wrote the songs for The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We in bursts over the years. The LP was mainly recorded at the Bomb Shelter in Nashville and co-produced by Patrick Hyland.

The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We is the follow-up to 2022’s Laurel Hell, which was featured on our Top 100 Albums of 2022 list.

Mitski’s Be the Cowboy was #2 on our Top 100 Albums of 2018 list and landed her on the cover of our print magazine.
