Kings of Convenience are back. The duo of Eirik Glambeck BoE and Erlend Øye have announced Peace or Love, their fourth studio album and first new full-length work since Declaration of Dependence back in 2009. The new album is out June 18 via EMI. Today’s announcement comes with the release of lead single “Rocky Trail.” Watch the video for that below.

“Another classic Eirik composition that skilfully ignores the verse-chorus-verse blueprint,” Øye said of the new song in a press release. “It’s pop music, but not as we know it.”

Kings of Convenience have also announced a European tour, set to kick off later this year on September 19 with a performance at the Grieghallen concert hall in their hometown of Bergen, Norway. Find the full tour itinerary here and check out the tracklist/album artwork for Peace or Love below.
