New Interpol album

Coming almost three years since 2005’s “Our Love To Admire”, Interpol have announced details of their new album, set to be released early next year.

The band spent spring recording the as yet untitled album, at the Electric Ladyland Studios in their hometown New York.

The band has kept themselves busy with side projects; including singer Paul Banks’ solo project Julian Plenti, drummer Sam Forgarino’s band Magnetic Morning, and bassist Carlos D’s short film.

Forgarino has stated in an interview with Paste magazine that the album will emulate the sound of Interpol’s lauded debut album, “Turn On The Bright Lights”: “The new record falls back towards the first. In trying to move forward, there was an unspoken realization that you can’t let go of your sonic-defining tag. There was an effort in Daniel [Kessler]’s guitar tone; he rediscovered it playing in his loft space for a year without anybody. The quality of that tone, played in a big room, is just beautiful. It creates an atmosphere.”
