"Another Bag of Bones" is a song, released as a single by Kevin Devine released on August 20, 2008 via digital retailers and a 7" vinyl record on the label Academy Fight Song.[1] The single features the song "Another Bag of Bones" and a lyrically revised cover of Phil Ochs' "Love Me, I'm a Liberal", inspired in part by the 2008 presidential election. Both tracks were produced by Rob Schnapf.

"Another Bag of Bones" is a political song, expressing personal feelings and metaphors on themes of war, environmental injustices, and religion. It received praise from critics, being described as a "creative renaissance" for Devine.[2]<ref name="Kevin Devine – Another Bag Of Bones 7"">James Shotwell (August 23, 2008).

The vinyl version was available in either transparent blue or red from Academy Fight Song's website, and a black tour edition was also available at shows.

"Another Bag of Bones" was later reworked and features on Kevin's fifth album, Brother's Blood. The version featured on this single is more stripped down than the version featured on Brother's Blood.

A remix of the title track by Trevor Dowdy (of I Married My Highschool Sweetheart, a Favorite Gentlemen labelmate) appears on the She Stayed As Steam EP.
