Dinosaur Jr. have announced a Sept. 18 release date for ‘I Bet on Sky,’ the veteran indie act’s tenth overall album together. The disc will be backed by a lengthy North American tour that kicks off Sept. 24-26 with a three-night stand in Toronto, Ontario.

‘I Bet on Sky’ is the trio’s first album since 2009′s ‘Farm’ and third since the classic lineup of frontman J Mascis, bassist Lou Barlow and drummer Murph reunited in 2005. In advance of their fall tour, the band have three festival appearances scheduled, including July 6 at the 80/35 Music Festival in Des Moines, Iowa. Check out their full itinerary below.

“Dinosaur Jr. have proven themselves to be unlikely masters of the long game,” music journalist and frequent penner of indie rock liner notes Byron Coley writes in a press release announcing the new disc. “Their new album … augurs well for their future trajectory. If I were prone to wagering, I’d say their best days are yet ahead of them. And yeah. I would bet the sky on it.”
