Queen–the British rock band that brought us hits like “We Are The Champions,” “Bohemian Rhapsody,” and “We Will Rock You”–is set to release its first new studio album in 13 years.

“The Cosmos Rocks” will feature Paul Rodgers as lead singer, and songs written by Brian May and Roger Taylor.

Queen’s last studio album, “Made In Heaven,” was released in 1995 with tracks by original front man Freddie Mercury.

Mercury died of AIDS in 1991.

Queen will also hit the road on a four-month tour in September. The tour will cover 17 countries.

Rodgers, former lead singer of Free and Bad Company, first joined Queen on their 2005 tour.

“The Cosmos Rocks” is set for a fall release.
