Band may tour again soon as well

Arcade Fire frontman Win Butler has hinted that the band's next record may arrive quicker than expected.

In an interview with NME, Butler said: "None of us want to take three years making a record. It could be that we'll play live [soon] and maybe we'll end up bashing it [another album] out fast.

"We're in the middle of writing, things are coming together, it's a great feeling."

He also revealed the band had changed their mind about touring in the near future, adding: ""If you had asked me [about playing live] six months ago I'd be like 'No, I'm good'.

"But now I go to a gig and I get the little…I can imagine being on that stage. It's the step before you actually go and do it."
