Returning soft-rockers Keane have revealed how their new material was inspired by The Vaccines.

In an interview with NME, Keane pianist Tim Rice-Oxley revealed that the band were so impressed with 'What Did You Expect From The Vaccines' that they hired the same producer to work on their comeback album, 'Strangeland'.

"We loved what (producer) Dan Grech did on The Vaccines album," said Rice-Oxley. "He'd also done stuff with Radiohead and produced the second Howling Bells album, which I loved.

"As luck would have it, Dan was a massive Keane fan, so we ended working with him."

'Strangeland' is due for release on May 7, 2012 and Keane embark on a UK tour in the same month.
