According to Billboard.com, Time on Earth-- the first album in nearly a decade-and-a-half from Kiwi jingle-janglers Crowded House-- will feature Johnny Marr on a pair of tracks, one of which he helped pen. You know, Johnny Marr from the Smiths, and now, Modest Mouse? Yeah, that Johnny Marr.

The album also features a track House-master Neil Finn wrote alongside the Grammy-grubbing Dixie Chicks, and it's produced in part by Dave Matthews' BFF Steve Lillywhite. Time on Earth arrives July 10 in North America via Matthews' own ATO Records, and July 2 in the UK via Parlophone.

In other Marr news, he'll be on the road imparting his worldly wisdom on Modest Mouse for the next several months.
