Kings Of Leon have confirmed the first single to be taken from their new album ‘Mechanical Bull‘ will be ‘Super-Soaker‘.
The track has been played live intermittently by the band during their 2013 touring engagements, and is pencilled in for an official release on July 17th via the usual digital outlets. The Followill family will appear on Late Night…with Jimmy Fallon for a performance of the single five days later.
‘Mechanical Bull’ subsequently arrives on September 24th – an album which, according to drummer Nathan Followill‘s conversation with MTV News, is the result of a desire to have fun in the studio.
“Going in to this record we knew we wanted to have fun and make songs that are fun to play on stage,” he said. “We challenged ourselves quite a bit.”
“I think it was very hard for Jared to have to dumb down his bass playing on some of these songs, but it fits the songs. There are some songs where I don’t even hit a cymbal.”
