The Life of the World to Come is the twelfth studio album by the Mountain Goats, released by 4AD on October 6, 2009. The third track, "Genesis 3:23", was released as a free download via the band's website on July 28. The album peaked at #110 on the Billboard Top 200 albums on its chart debut. The Life of the World to Come is a concept album in which John Darnielle draws inspiration from specific verses of the Bible. The twelve tracks of the album are each inspired by a single verse from either the Jewish Tanakh or the Christian New Testament. The album's title comes from a line of the Nicene Creed. Early copies of the album sold via Rough Trade's physical and online stores featured a bonus CD-R, The Life of the World in Flux.
