The midwest, particularly the part of the midwest Eric D. Johnson hails from, is a largely flat expanse. Zipping through it on the highway, you?ll see cities and towns rise up in the distance, but blink and you?ll miss other man-made rejoinders to horizontal living dotting the landscape, hill after hill, built from the refuse of the past: landfills. Some of these hills make for great sledding spots, parks, and trails. Others turn organic waste into compost. The Landfill, Fruit Bats? June 12, 2026 album from Merge Records, is something else entirely: a mountain dominating the landscape of Johnson?s heart.

    Since the late nineties, Fruit Bats has been the music of Eric D. Johnson. Bloody marys, major 7th chords, Nashville tuning, tibetan singing bowls.
