Interpol have announced the release of their new album El Pintor (that's Spanish for "the painter"). Update: As our own Jeremy Gordon points out, "El Pintor" is also an anagram of "Interpol". The follow-up to to 2010's self-titled LP arrives September 9 in North America and September 8 internationally. Update: It will be released via Matador.

The band recorded the LP at Electric Lady Studios and Atomic Sound in New York City with James Brown (Arctic Monkeys, Foo Fighters), while mixing was handled by Alan Moulder (My Bloody Valentine, Nine Inch Nails) in London. That's the cover art, above. Watch the band perform new songs "Anywhere" and "My Desire" live here.
