September 25, the clouds will lift, and Stars will return. That's the day In Our Bedroom After the War, the band's fourth album, will be released on the Arts & Crafts imprint in North America.

The Canadian firestarters' fourth full-length disc, and follow-up to 2004's excellent Set Yourself on Fire, was recorded at Vancouver's Warehouse Studios and mixed by Wincing the Night Away producer Joe Chiccarelli. It will be released on CD, as a digital download, and a double-LP.

In other Stars news, Amy Millan's got herself a few summer dates left, and "Bill Badger" himself Torquil Campbell and his Memphis side-thing recently got A Little Place in the Wilderness on U.S. shelves. The band have a few tour dates themselves in September, with more promised in North America and Europe throughout the fall.
