Hozier added that there are ideas and demos already, but that he’s not ready yet to say anything as he’s still promoting his last album for the last two and a half years.

“There are ideas, there are demos,” the 26-year-old told Idolator.

“I’m not gonna show my hand on it until I feel I’m ready to show my hand on it.

“It’s not like you release the album and then sit around and do nothing for two years.

“I’ve been touring the world. I packed a suitcase two and a half years ago and I haven’t unpacked that suitcase.”

The Bray native further revealed that the “myth of fame and success” in the music industry is “nonsense” but he plans to still be himself.

“The myth of fame and the myth of success is cultivated because it is monetizable and it is profitable,” he admitted.

“We sell the myth of fame and the myth of success in music, we sell it in videos, but it’s f***ing bollocks.

“It’s all nonsense. The thing is, when you think you’ve arrived at the point that you’ve been striving to get to, you fucking have to bring yourself with you.

“Much to my disappointment, I still am myself. I still view the world with the same eyes that I did when I did the first album.”
