Klaxons' eagerly awaited second album won't be released until 2010, band member Jamie Reynolds has revealed.

Reynolds admitted the band are yet to find a producer to work on the 28 tracks they have written and are a long way off finishing.

Explaining that they're happy taking their time, Reynolds told BBC6music: “We’d really like to put out the first great record of the 2010s rather than the last great one of this decade. Now that’s become an aspiration and a goal.”

Despite working with Tony Visconti during the embryonic stages of recording tracks for the album, who they later ditched, Reynolds says they're still looking for a replacement.

He added: “We’ve now got 28 songs and we’re just about to put it together as a complete record. We’re looking for a producer and if anyone out there makes records, give us a bell.”

Klaxons showcased some of their new material at a low-key show in Coventry earlier this month.
