As reported last week, Sam Bean and his alt-folk band Iron & Wine will be releasing a new album in early 2011. Captioned above is the official art work for Kiss Each Other Clean, a captivating illustration of what seems to be Beam (beard and outfit kinda gives him away) surrounded by water in a colorful line and shape world.
