Bat For Lashes new track 'Laura' has received its official premiere, with the explicit artwork for her new album 'The Haunted Man' appearing online today.
The song is the first track to be heard from the forthcoming third Bat For Lashes album, titled 'The Haunted Man'. You can see the ever-so slightly NSFW cover art, shot by Ryan McGinley, above.
The Haunted Man will be released on 15 October 2012 and Natasha Khan will also embark on a headline UK tour the week of the album's release.
The UK tour begins on 19 October at Edinburgh Picture House and concludes on 4 November at Brighton Dome Concert Hall. She will also perform at Bestival, in September this year.
'Haunted Man' follows her debut album 'Fur And Gold', released in 2006, and 2009 release 'Two Suns'.
