Klaxons have revealed their plans for their second album, admitting they are heading for a change in musical direction.

The band hopes to make a prog record to rid themselves of their current new rave tagging, and have revealed that they have already started writing some of the material.

“We’ve written the opener of the next album," said guitarist Simon Taylor. "We’re think of making a prog album – like a huge tribal prog album. We’ve all been listening to bands in England like Caravan, so we’re definitely making a big, prog album.”
