Last year, rumours started to circulate that the band would be headlining Reading & Leeds 2017. When asked for a response to the rumours and the band’s current activity, a Kasabian spokesperson simply replied: “The band are currently finishing their new album.”

Meanwhile, Interpol have confirmed that they are working on a new album, and issued a due date. They have also announced a 15th anniversary tour for their classic album ‘Turn On The Bright Lights’.
