Leonard Cohen said in October that he would have a new album in 2012. Now the record company has announced a date. There is a preview track up online.

The preview song is a beauty:
http://soundcloud.com/leonardcohen/show-me
Show me the place
Help me roll away the stone
Show me the place
I can't move this thing alone
Show me the place
Where the Word became a man
Show me the place
Where the suffering began.
If this song is any indication, this album will be vintage Cohen and well worth the wait (seven years since Dear Heather).

Tomorrow's the day. Early reviews that I've read have been positive and the tracks I've heard on the radio and online sound good. There are numerous sites streaming the album right now, including CBC, and CBC Radio 2 is going to be playing tracks from it throughout their morning and evening programs (Radio 2 Morning and Radio 2 Drive) tomorrow.
