Never ones to shy away from the road, the band will kick off their next tour at the beginning of December.

"Having time at home means we’ve been able to prepare for this tour properly," frontman Rou Reynolds tells Kerrang!. "Usually we take on far too much ourselves in terms of production, and everything is very last minute. That means there’s all sorts of things going wrong at the first show. This time it feels like we’re prepared. Obviously, there’s not silly big venues this time, we don’t have the quadraphonic sound, so it feels like it’s going to be more fun. It feels less tense in terms of the work and the preparation, but now I feel raring to go; I’ve got a full tank of juice.”
