As we reported two weeks ago, Bob Dylan is expected to release a new album, a follow-up to 2006's critically-acclaimed Modern Times, late next month. Today, a press release was issued announcing the title and date of the forthcoming release: Dylan's next album, Together Through Life, will be released on April 28. As rumored, the album was recorded under Dylan's studio pseudonym Jack Frost, and the songs take on a different sound than his other recent work.

In a Q&A posted on BobDylan.com, the iconic and prolific singer shares some details about the album with music biographer Bill Flanagan. "I think we milked it all we could on that last record and then some," Dylan says. "We squeezed the cow dry. All the Modern Times songs were written and performed in the widest range possible so they had a little bit of everything. These new songs have more of a romantic edge."
