Multiple limited-edition pre-order packages are available at www.jarsofclay.com. Packages include limited quantities of a bonus remix collection download, 180 Gram Dual Disc 45 RPM Color Vinyl, tickets to the Inland tour and pre-event guest passes, lyrics handwritten by the band, posters and other autographed memorabilia.

"These are songs for the ordinary days - when life is weighty and uncertain," said Matthew Odmark of the band in a press release. "It is this middle space that we have inhabited over the years. It's where you and I do the gritty work of actually living."

"Inland," the title track, was recently featured as RollingStone.com's free "Daily Download."

Their first video, "After The Fight," features well-known guitarist Adrian Belew.

"We asked Adrian Belew if he'd come in and work his magic," said Dan Haseltine in a press release. "He produced two songs on our first record, but we were too intimidated to let him play guitar. This time he added his big, wild, twanging guitar sound, the reverse solos and all the other effects he's famous for."

"It took a long time to strip away every voice that wasn't ours to make Inland," explained Haseltine. "For me, it's always been about a great song. We want to connect with people who love music for music. That's why created our own label [Gray Matters]."
