Chris Baio of Vampire Weekend told fans that a new record from the band will come but will take some time. He told NME: "Right now I think it’s early days, I haven’t actually done any work on the next Vampire Weekend record, but I'm really looking forward to it." He added: "I can’t wait to tour it, but there’s still going to be a little bit of time."
Also speaking to NME were Slaves and said a follow-up from their bombastic debut, Are You Satisfied? is coming soon. Guitarist Laurie Vincent said: "We’ve written a load of demos and we’re going to make a new album and yeah, keep having lots of fun." Drummer Isaac Holm called the new songs "heavy, dirty and fun."
