Elbow Working on New Material

added 07 September 2011 at 16.58

Guy Garvey has told Xfm they have already started on the follow up to Build A Rocket Boys....

The band spoke to Xfm backstage at last night's Mercury Prize for which they were nominated but lost to PJ Harvey for Let England Shake.

Guy Garvey let slip that even though Build A Rocket Boys only came out in March they're already thinking about the next one.

"We've got no idea how its going to sound. We've got an idea that we want to make it very guitar heavy but we always have an idea to start with. Or drum heavy. It depends on which member of the band you speak to," he confessed.

But don't get too excited Elbow fans! It's not going to be on record store shelves anytime soon.

When asked about a release date the Elbow frontman confessed, "Its dangerous to give yourself deadlines but I think we'll have something early 2014."
