Antics is the second studio album by Interpol, released on September 27, 2004, through Matador Records. Upon its release, the album peaked at number fifteen on the Billboard 200 and number 21 on the UK Albums Chart, and went on to sell over 488,000 copies in the United States.

Antics received generally favorable reviews from critics. Drowned in Sound named it the best album of 2004, and it likewise appeared on end-of-year lists by several other music publications. It was later certified gold by the RIAA in 2009. Four singles were released from the album: “Slow Hands”, “Evil”, “C’mere”, and “Narc”.

Morse code is used in several places throughout the album’s packaging, continuing the nautical themes found in a few of the tracks’ lyrics (“Take You on a Cruise”, “Public Pervert”, “A Time to Be So Small”). Code for the word “antics” is used on the back panel of the slipcase, as well as in the booklet; other words included in code are “length”, “narc”, “cruise”, and “exit”. Photography of the band used in the interior of the album was produced by Ami Barwell.
