"The Boss" is back in business. The music world is buzzing today over the announcement that Bruce Springsteen has finished his 17th studio album, Wrecking Ball, and it will be gracing shelves on March 6.

There's a few things to point out which make this record especially noteworthy. We've heard two of the tracks before: the title song was debuted at Giants Stadium in fall 2009 and the other one, "Land of Hope and Dreams," was performed regularly throughout the E Street Band's 1999 reunion tour.

Wrecking Ball was produced by Ron Aniello (who has also worked with Guster), and the album features Tom Morello on guitar, former Pearl Jam drummer Matt Chamberlain, and of course members of the E Street Band.

Just to make you Bruce fans flip a little more, there will apparently be a world tour right after the release — cross your fingers for a Twin Cities date. You can listen to the lead track below.
