The Drums Recording New Album

The Drums have revealed that they are currently working on material for their new album.

The follow-up to their successful 2010 self-titled debut will be released later this year.

"This year we'll put something out. We're writing and recording every day in New York. Currently recording in our kitchen so it's a very home spun effort again," frontman Jonathan Pierce told XFM.

He added: "Right now its just guitar based, drums, vocals and I've bought this really old modular analogue synthesiser from Tokyo that we're sort of implementing."
