Listen: New Track From Interpol Singer's Solo Project
Interpol frontman Paul Banks is back as Julien Plenti, his solo nom de tune, and according to Pitchfork, he dropped his new EP Julian Plenti Lives... today (June 26). It features a cover of late superstar rap producer J Dilla, but before you hear that, listen to an original track off the EP, "Summertime is Coming," below. It's as brooding as classic Interpol, but Banks/Plenti does his best to get excited about the summer: "The summer time is coming, so get out / The season is calling / The season is calling / Get out." His record label, Matador, has also confirmed that Plenti's next full-length album will drop in October.
Listen to the single below, then let us know what you think in the comments!
