It's April 17th. You're listening to music news today, AI-powered music coverage. I'm Cory with the story. Interpol just hit fans with a live debut of their new track, Wings on Fire. During a gig in Albuquerque, sandwiched between Coachella Weekends, one and two. This punchy number teases their eighth studio album, coming after 2022's The Other Side of Make Believe. The New York indie crew's been tearing through North and South America on tour, building hype. They first aired, see out loud, last month, and made it a set staple ever since. Wings on Fire. Channels that raw, choppy energy from their early days, like a spiritual cousin to past hits, with an infectious chorus begging you to. Scream along. Fans are buzzing online from the clip, loving how it locks in that anthemic interpol groove. Guitarist Daniel Kessler spilled last year about mixing upbeat vibes with fresh moods on the record, calling the process a blast.

Drummer Sam Fogorino sat out touring after spinal surgery in 2023, but he co-wrote and played on the album, they're rolling with the sub, from The Armed Now. After Coachella's second go, they're jetting to Australia and New Zealand in May to back death tones. Then Europe hits in July and August, supporting my chemical romance in Italy and stacking festivals like London's All Points East with IDLEs and more. Heavy hitters. Year in strong co-headlining with Block Party across the UK and Europe, including massive nights at London's new British Airways ARC Arena. Interpol's eighth drop soon, keeping that fire alive.
