Black Rebel Motorcycle Club have revealed their new album will be released in March next year.
The 2013 release will be the indie trio's first since 2010's 'Beat the Devil's Tattoo' in 2010.
The band were stunned in August of the same year when shortly after coming off stage from a performance at Pukkelpop Festival in Belgium- bassist, Robert Levon Been's father died of a heart attack backstage.
Been spoke of how much hard work had been required to put a new record together, and also thanked fans for their patience.
He said: "I would like to be the first to tell everyone who has been patiently waiting, that the new Black Rebel Motorcycle Club album is officially confirmed to be released in March 2013.
"This album has taken every last ounce of us to bring to life, and if it wasn't for you guys keeping us going, we don't know if it would've ever seen the light of day."

Following the new record's release, the rockers will also embark on a six-date tour of the UK, starting in Manchester on 24 March, and concluding in Leeds on 30 March.
The bassist went on to discuss how much the trio are looking forward to getting out of the studio and hitting the road.
He added: "It's going to be a joyful day indeed when we get to see you all again and share these songs with you.
"Peter, Leah and myself are dying to get out of this studio right now and back into the fight. It's taken us a long while getting back on our feet, but the time has come."
