Night, Tennessee rockers Kings Of Leon have admitted they’re constantly feuding thanks to arguments over songwriting royalties.

The band – made up of three brothers and one cousin – are already planning to head back into the studio to record their fifth longplayer, but according to 22-year-old bassist Jared Followill (the younger brother of singer/guitarist Caleb and drummer Nathan), things aren’t going very smoothly.

“We started seriously writing the songs when we got back home from tour,” Jared told the Daily Star newspaper. “I got a call from Caleb going: ‘I’m sitting here writing the next album by myself.’ And we’re like: ‘Oh no, you’re not.’ We ended up going to his house so that when the record comes out he can’t go: ‘Dude, I’m getting 70 percent of this shit.’”

“Caleb was really weird when we started,” Jared reckons. “Everything that I thought was quite charming about us, he wanted to lie about. For me it’s hard having an opinion on this band. If I wasn’t involved I can’t imagine liking us a lot, just because I only control 25 percent of it. In every song there’s something I wish I could change. Each one of us are like that, though.”

The Kings Of Leon are set to release a live DVD and remix album in the upcoming months.
