Interpol is bringing their brooding post-punk magic straight to vinyl with the announcement of their latest live LP, a raw, one-shot recording captured at Third Man Records’ legendary Blue Room in Nashville. Mark your calendars: this limited-edition album, immortalized direct-to-acetate on June 13, 2024, will be available both digitally and physically starting December 6. And if you can’t wait, the live version of their electrifying hit, “Say Hello To The Angels,” is already streaming and setting the stage for what’s to come.

Interpol, one of New York City’s most iconic exports, broke into the alternative scene with their dark, atmospheric debut, Turn on the Bright Lights. With their hypnotic fusion of post-punk intensity and shoegaze allure, the band quickly became darlings of the early 2000s indie renaissance. Their debut and subsequent albums cemented Interpol’s place as a major force in modern alternative music, leading them to deliver seven critically acclaimed albums to date, including The Other Side of Make-Believe, released just last year.

This new live LP is the latest in Third Man Records’ famous direct-to-acetate recordings, a process that’s as old-school as it sounds. The album was cut live, no second takes, no touch-ups, straight to a 1955 Scully lathe that once belonged to King Records in Cincinnati. This gear has seen the likes of James Brown and now, thanks to Third Man’s preservation of this rare process, it’s spinning the dark and driving sounds of Interpol. With every crackle and pulse, listeners will get the sense that they’re right there, experiencing the immediacy and energy of Interpol’s live performance.

Available for pre-order now, this LP is more than just a record—it’s a collectible slice of history, capturing Interpol at the height of their powers in a recording process that nearly faded away in the ’50s. So, whether you’re a die-hard fan or a vinyl collector, this one’s not to miss.
