6893618Twice Awarded Brit Winners Kings Of Leon have recently confirmed plans for a 2010 album. The band hope to release their next album next year in the Fall season, also adding that the album would sound a ‘little grungier‘ than normal. The band also exclaimed that they haven’t had much time to work on their forthcoming album because they are touring till the end of this year so its a struggle to find time to actually head back to the studios, but they have been said to be writing some cool stuff. The bands follow up to their latest album ‘Only By The Night’ is said to be the one that they are excited about as its a whole new start of a genre for the young lads. Lets hope their next album reaches the standards of their album ‘Only By The Night’ as it is a tough one to beat seeing as it has one the ‘Best International Album’ award at the Brits last night.
