Details are vague right now - that is, what country they’ll be supporting, or when - but in a recent interview with Pitchfork Media, Simon Taylor-Davis seemed to confirm this.

Pitchfork: Is the transition between this headline UK tour and opening for Interpol going to be weird?

Simon Taylor-Davis: It is, because we’ve never supported a band on tour before. We played one gig with Arctic Monkeys once at the Forum. They’re really good friends of our because they worked with James. Alex [Turner] used to go out with a girl that lived two doors away from me, so he used to be in New Cross. He used to come to loads of our early gigs– some of the squat parties we played. He was a fan from day one.

I think it’s a lot harder when you’re opening. You really have to win people over. We’ve always been really lucky that we’ve had crowds who have been quite into it. It’s going to be an exciting transition. I think there is always that kind of thing when you’re opening that you just want to blow the headline band away don’t you? I think there’s probably an element of that.
