Interpol's bass player Carlos Dengler has left the band.

Dengler, who was an original member of the New York doom-pop quartet, announced his resignation after the band had completed work on their forthcoming as-yet-untitled fourth album, due this summer.

In a statement on their website, the band said:

"Sadly, Carlos will not be joining us (on tour).

After the completion of the album, Carlos informed the rest of us that he would be leaving the band. He has decided to follow another path, and to pursue new goals. This separation is amicable, and we whole-heartedly wish him great happiness and success. We will remain, as always, deeply respectful fans of this blazingly talented individual.

We can tell you that we have some very exciting new recruits joining us on the road. So stay tuned - we will promptly be revealing the identities of these illustrious players.

We eagerly await the opportunity to reconvene with you all - the greatest fans known to Rock."
