New New Pornographers stuff: Expected August

Talking to Pitchfork, Carl Newman has confirmed the seemingly impossible-to-organise New Pornographers fourth album is getting under way this month:

Yeah, we're about a week away from starting to mix our record. We're going to try and have it finished by the end of April, then it should come out at the end of August, something like that.

It's going to be called Challengers and, apparently, will be "quieter than they've ever been."
