Lasts LP

Elizabeth Powell built Land of Talk in 2006, pushed through two albums, then stopped when vocal cord damage and caregiving duties shut the whole project down until she restarted it in 2015. Lasts is Land of Talk’s sixth album overall, written and produced by Powell and cut with Michael Feuerstack and Michael Belyea inside a cabin in rural Harrington, Quebec. The songs take direct aim at climate collapse, aging parents, and Powell’s identity as a non-binary artist, landing on Saddle Creek with the weight of all three.
