Nocturnal Womb features two new songs that a press release says were "too dark and visceral to fit the story of Blackbraid III," as well as an acoustic version of the Blackbraid II song "Barefoot Ghost Dance on Blood Soaked Soil."
"'Dancing' really captures the playful side of what Steve and I discovered on stage together last summer - that push-and-pull of melody and energy. The video gave us a chance to show that spirit in a completely different way. Watching ZZ bring this absurd casting concept to life - and having Brendon step into the madness - made it even more fun."
Mitski's eighth album Nothing's About To Happen To Me is Mitski's first studio album since 2023's The Land Is Inhospitable And So Are We. Last October, she surprise-released a live album to accompany the premiere of her concert film, Mitski: The Land. The film, directed by Grant James, included footage from three shows the artist played at Atlanta's Fox Theatre in 2024, accompanied by a seven-piece band.

The group went on to release six albums with the label, starting with 2005's and ending with their most recent album, 2022's Asphalt Meadows.
Murry was a mentor to me when we made that first record all those decades ago, and this album felt like the right time to work with him in that capacity again.
"It's music for a statistically wealthy population that somehow can't afford food or medicine-endlessly scrolling past vacation photos, gym selfies, and images of child amputees in the same feed."
