Marauder by Interpol
Marauder is an album by Interpol, released in 2018. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 3 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “The Rover”, on 3 lists with a best position of #29.
Marauder, Interpol's sixth studio album, came out on Matador on August 24, 2018, and it's the sound of a band deciding to stop polishing. After spending 2017 on the road playing Turn On the Bright Lights front to back, Paul Banks, Daniel Kessler and Sam Fogarino headed to Cassadaga, New York, and Dave Fridmann's Tarbox Road studio, where they worked from December 2017 into April 2018. Fridmann lets things run hot: the drums punch harder, the guitars fray at the edges, and Banks, still handling the bass in the studio as he had since Carlos Dengler's exit, sings with more grit than gloom.
"The Rover" led the way as the first single in June, all rattling, forward-leaning drive, followed by "Number 10" and "If You Really Love Nothing" in the weeks before release. It picks up where El Pintor left off, just with the lights turned up and the collars loosened.
