It has been reported that Kings Of Leon will release their sixth studio album this October, after previewing a host of new songs during their recent performances. The band played to a sold out crown in Hyde Park in June and are set to perform as one of the headline acts at this month’s V Festival.

The band’ follow-up to 2008’s Only By The Night will apparently arrive on October 19, according to US website Direct Current Music, who cited a release schedule for the band’s label RCA.

Kings Of Leon tickets are still available for the band’s appearances at V Festival in both Chelmsford and Shifnal on the 21st and 22nd August. Although officially sold out from primary vendors, V Festival tickets are still available from fan-to-fan ticket exchange websites such as Seatwave, GetMeIn and Viagogo.
