Kings Of Leon’s smash-hit fourth album ‘Only By The Night‘ has been confirmed as the UK’s highest selling digital record, after shifting over 250,000 units since it’s release in 2008.

Florence Welch has insisted she doesn’t feel under any pressure while writing the follow-up to her debut album ‘Lungs‘, and is more relaxed at this stage of her career. “I don’t feel pressurised at all,” she said. “The live situation is similar to the record situation; I felt pressure towards the first album. The second feels like a release. I’ve got new ground to cover, whereas the first was just scary.”
