The Shins will release the long-awaited follow up to ‘Wincing The Night Away‘ sometime next year, according to Pitchfork.

The website reports the new album will be released through frontman James Mercer‘s own Aural Apothecary label, following the band’s long association with Sub Pop. Since the release of ‘Wincing The Night Away’ in 2007, Mercer has lent his hand to various other projects, most notably collaborating with Danger Mouse under the Broken Bells banner.
