Kasabian singer Tom Meighan believes his band's upcoming album goes "beyond leftfield".

The Leicester indie group are due to release their currently untitled next record later this year.

Speaking to NME, Meighan said that the album is shaping up to be a "fantastic" effort, with its tunes seemingly going into experimental territory.

He said: "It’s a dangerous, dangerous, dangerous, dangerous drug we’ve created. I can’t get my head round it. It’s rock ‘n’ roll, it’s got the rawness and it’s edgy, but we’ve gone back to electronica and we’ve gone beyond leftfield. What else can we do? It’s a silver bullet mate. It’s fantastic."

The group also revealed that one new track - 'Ezz-Ehh' - features the lyrics: "Horsemeat in the burgers, people commit murders, everyone’s on bugle, we’re being watched by Google."

Speaking about the song, guitarist Serge Pizzorno said: "It’s more a conversation that me and Tom might have at five or six in the morning. Ridiculous rants when you think you’re making the most amazing points, and the next morning you’re like…what? I was gonna call it 'Horsemeat' but I thought it was a bit ridiculous. But it’s just a bit of a spit, really. There have been so many nights in hotel rooms when me and Tom will stay up all night talking and it’s about that."
