Put Your Ghost To Rest is Kevin Devine's fourth album. It was released on October 17, 2006 through Capitol Records.

A limited double LP vinyl version of Put Your Ghost To Rest was released by Brooklyn-based label Academy Fight Song in May 2007, limited to 500 copies on solid white/solid orange vinyl. The double LP also includes three previously unreleased b-sides: 'Harvest Moon' by Neil Young, 'Holland, 1945' by Neutral Milk Hotel, and Devine's own 'Wolf's Mouth.'

After being dropped by Capitol Records in early 2007, Put Your Ghost To Rest had become increasingly hard to find in retail locations. In late 2007, Kevin had hinted at a re-release of the album with the aid of Brand New's record label, Procrastinate! Music Traitors. On April 20, 2008, the record was re-released.

[edit] Trivia

There are slight packaging differences between the Capitol and Procrastinate! versions of the record. Most notably, the Procrastinate! version is lighter in color, a less bold font, features lines between the track listing on the back and removes the track listing from the actual CD.
