Iron & Wine will release Beast Epic, his first new material in over four years, out on Sub Pop via Inertia Music. The LP features eleven new compositions that share a certain kinship with his earlier material.

It is the first Iron & Wine album produced since The Creek Drank The Cradle, though the results are vastly different. This album brims with surprise flourishes, classic touches and an appealing confidence that is evident on songs like ‘Call It Dreaming’, ‘Thomas County Law’, ‘About A Bruise’ to the almost croony ‘Last Night’.
