The Manchester group's frontman said that the LP would be about "growing up".
He told BBC 6 Music: "The working title of the album at the moment is Lippy Kids. It's quite a nostalgic thing.
"I've got a thing about growing up, not needing to, but a certain period of your life when - well, kids are called 'hoodies' these days, aren't they, when they reach their teens? I remember it being an amazing, important time, so I've written a lot about that."
The disc, planned for release next year, is the follow-up to Elbow's 2008 Mercury Music Prize-winning album The Seldom Seen Kid.
