Interpol recently finished recording their upcoming seventh album, and marked the occasion by sharing a teaser for a new, untitled track, and are also set to embark on a worldwide tour, beginning in April.
The band’s first tour in two years since supporting their 2018 album “Marauder“, the U.S. tour kicks off in April and continues in other cities, before concluding with two nights at Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, New York, alongside supporting acts Tycho and Matthew Dear.
Interpol is also playing shows in Mexico, where they will be joined by Dry Cleaning, in addition to Europe, and the United Kingdom. Interpol will also perform headline sets at Just Like Heaven Festival in Los Angeles, Palacio De Los Deportes in Mexico City, and Primavera Sound in Barcelona.
The new album follows “Marauder” and Interpol’s 2019 EP, “A Fine Mess” in 2019, a compilation of tracks held over from the same sessions. In 2020, Banks also formed the group Muzz with Josh Kaufman and Matt Barrick and released a self-titled album.
The band started working on the new album, a follow up to the 2018 release “Marauder“, in London last year with producers Mark Ellis (Flood) and Alan Moulder (Flood & Moulder), known for their work together with Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode, The Smashing Pumpkins, and The Killers. Individually, the producers, who won the 2014 BRIT Award for the Foals album Holy Fire, have their own impressive credits. Moulder, who also mixed Interpol’s 2014 release El Pintor, has a catalogue of work with The Cure, Foo Fighters, Moby, Arctic Monkeys, and more, while Ellis produced PJ Harvey’s To Bring You My Love and Is This Desire?, U2’s The Joshua Tree, Achtung Baby, and Zooropa, and worked with artists like New Order, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, The Charlatans, and The Joy Formidable.
