Royal Blood issue update on second album: 'The ideas are all in our brains'


Royal Blood have spoken about the progress of their next album, confirming that they've stopped touring for the moment to concentrate on the follow-up to their self-titled debut.

"We did a lot of touring and now we're done," frontman Mike Kerr told Gigwise at the Q Awards on Monday (October 19), adding that they will now enjoy a brief period of "hibernation" before heading back to the studio.

When asked what ambitions the band had for their next LP, Kerr said that the ideas were currently "all in my brain".

The band also discussed new track 'Hook, Line And Sinker', which they played live at Reading Festival in late August. Kerr said: "I think that song came about a few months before Reading. We were so desperate to play it, so we did. The writing process really has just begun. Maybe that's like, the weirdest song on the record, I don't know yet – it's hard to say."

Royal Blood recently spoke to NME about how they turned their tourbus into a temporary studio.

“I built a studio in the back of our bus,” Kerr said. “It’s very hard to write when everything keeps falling over because the driver’s taken a massive corner. It was our writing den – we’d have Clint Eastwood movies playing with the volume down.”
