Sam Beam's Iron & Wine are back with their follow-up LP to 2011's Kiss Each Other Clean. Ghost on Ghost is out April 16 in the U.S. via their new label home, Nonesuch. (It's out on April 15 via 4AD in Europe, Japan, Australia, and New Zealand.) Below, check out the band's first offering from the album, "Lovers' Revolution".

The album was produced by Brian Deck, who has worked extensively with Iron & Wine in the past. The album cover, pictured above, is by photographer Barbara Crane, from her series "Private Lives" . UPDATE: It's actually called "Private Views". Musicians on the album include Rob Burger of Tin Hat Trio, Steve Bernstein, Tony Scherr, Kenny Wollesen, and Briggan Krauss of Sex Mob, jazz drummer Brian Blade, trombonist Curtis Fowlkes of the Jazz Passengers, bassist Tony Garnier (Bob Dylan's band), cellist Marika Hughes, Maxim Moston and Doug Wieselman of Antony and the Johnsons, and Anja Wood.

In a press release, Beam said that his previous two albums contained an "anxious tension" that he wanted to move away from. "This record felt like a reward to myself after the way I went about making the last few."

Iron & Wine are planning to tour throughout the year-- dates will be announced soon.
