Los Campesinos! are heading into the studio to record a new album, report The Line Of Best Fit.

The band will head to Bangor's Bryn Derwen studios in their native Wales to lay down their fifth album, their first recording since the departure of previous bass player Ellen Campesinos!. TLOBF suggest the album may get a release either later this or early next.

Ellen's final gig with the band, at the Islington Assembly Hall last December, has been released as the live album A Good Night For A Fistfight which you can download here.
