Interpol will be making their return to the UK after being confirmed as headliners of this year's NME Awards tour. Dates and ticket details are below.
The sharply-suited New York indie heroes will be joined by up and coming bands Temples, Royal Blood and Circa Waves as they make their way around the UK, debuting new material from their upcoming fifth album.
Announcing the news on their official Facebook page, the band said: "We currently find ourselves in the UK finishing the new album so it feels only appropriate to announce our first UK dates of 2014 from here. We're pleased to say that we'll be headlining this year's NME Awards Tour.
"We had a great time playing the Awards Tour in 2003 and we're very much looking forward to our return. It should be a lot of fun. The UK crowds are among the best!"
NME editor Mike Williams added: "Here at NME we are always championing the best new talent, so securing three of Britain's most in demand breakthrough bands to kick off proceedings for the tour is totally exciting. Backed up with the world-beating return of Interpol – one of the most important bands to come out of New York ever – is also a massive coup for us".
