Lostprophets Talk About New Album

Lostprophets are currently recording the follow-up to 2006’s ‘Liberation Transmission,’ in Los Angeles.

The band are recording new record alongside Goldfinger member John Feldmann, who has also produced material with Good Charlotte and The Used.

Speaking about the band’s new album– which is pencilled in for release in the Spring of next year - frontman Ian Watkins described the sound as “darker, quirkier, generally more apocalyptic" than 'Liberation Transmission.'

Although the band recently previewed some of the album sessions when they headlined The Full Ponty Festival, Watkins has admitted that the songs are already evolving.

He said: “We are raising the bar during these recordings and stuff we thought would make it through has already been surpassed by newer stuff."

Meanwhile, Lostprophets will take a break from recording their new album to play a series of UK festivals over the coming months – starting at T in the Park, in Scotland this weekend (July 7th).

Lostprophets will play the following dates:

Glasgow, Garage – July 6
Scotland, T in the Park - 7
London, Astoria - August 22
Carling Weekend: Leeds Festival – 24
Carling Weekend: Reading Festival - 26
