The upcoming Futureheads album has some "crazy" songs when compared to previous records.
The Futureheads have issued some hints over what their new album will sound like.
Speaking to BBC 6 Music, singer drummer Dave Hyde explained that the as-yet-untitled record includes similar "dumb, punk-rock" efforts that are reminiscent of 2008's This Is Not The World.
"But then there's some really crazy stuff on there as well, stuff that we've never done before," he added.
Singer Barry Hyde also revealed that the band have self-produced the album, using a Newcastle-based £200-a-day demo studio.
"It sounds great. It feels like we're starting off in quite a confident way," Hyde told the broadcaster.
However, he admitted that engineer David Brewis gave The Futureheads a hand with the album, helping out the drummer during a few recording sessions.
Last week, alternative rockers Sonic Youth told BBC 6 Music that they are planning to record their 17th studio album next year.
Guitarist and vocalist Lee Ranaldo said the group is likely to start recording in 2010, but have to first finishing working on the soundtrack to a French teen film.
