Kings Of Leon are set to release their next studio album later this year, it’s been reported.

The follow-up to 2008’s ‘Only By The Night’ will apparently arrive on October 19.

The date has been obtained by US website Direct Current Music, who cited a release schedule for the band’s label RCA.

Kings Of Leon have previewed a host of songs from the as yet untitled new album during their recent tour dates.

Working song titles include 'Immortals', 'Mary' and 'Radioactive'.

The Nashville band are set to return to the UK later this month to headline the V Festival.
