Klaxons To Start Work On New Album

Klaxons have got a busy few months ahead of them after winning the Mercury Prize this week but they will still have time to start work on their second album they say.

The band have tours of North America, Australia and Europe ahead of them before the end of the year.

However, James Righton said after their Mercury win on Tuesday night that they will work on the second long player in the coming weeks.

He told XFM: "We’ve got about two weeks off to write and maybe demo some stuff and then we’re off around the world for three months.

"We've got a few ideas for the new record. We're gonna make a swollen pop record, something that’s swollen, more pop, more heavier, and more everything.

“Its not about now we’ve won this we change anything, we just keep on doing what we’re doing."
