In a SiriusXM interview, Kings of Leon brothers Nathan and Caleb Followill announced that they are working on a follow-up to 2013’s Mechanical Bull album. The band hopes to release their 7th studio album by the end of 2015.

“We’ve been at home writing, trying to get some new stuff going,” said Nathan Followill. “And we kind of had to put it on hold because we have this and another festival coming up, but we have big enough breaks in between most of them to where I think we’re gonna be able to get the album written by the end of the year.”

As of now, the band is still deciding where to record the album, but most of the songwriting has been completed. Their summer tour dates are rather scant, especially since their headlining slot at Firefly was cancelled due to weather, but we’re hoping that means the group is working diligently on their new music.
