haven't listened to much of their stuff yet, but saw them in concert here in Austin last night...they're an awesome band...any interpol fans here??...favorite songs??
Interpol is one of my favorite current bands. I was fortunate enough to see them in Nashville this past July as a part of the Curiosa Festival. They were everything I was hoping they would be and more. Everything on "Turn on the Bright Lights" is fantastic, but my favorite song is "NYC". The follow-up, "Antics", is a very strong album but not as consistently good overall as TOTBL. However, I think "Evil" (the 2nd track) is their all-time best song.
i saw them in austin last year at emos. the setting was remarkable. it was absolutely freezing outside (and, of course, "inside" of emos) and freezingrain/snow was falling lightly and blowing into the crowd of about 250 people. everyone was wearing black and huddled-up close to each other. i know this band is from NYC, but clearly their music harkens back to the manchester days of the late 70's and early 80's. it was like we were at a Joy Division concert in 1979. unbe-freakin-liveable. it is because of this extra-ordinary experience that i did NOT attend the show last night. i wish to preserve that moment forever. i'm glad you had a great time.
Huge HUGE fan of this band and I was fortunate enough to catch them at the Curiosa concert here in August. Awesome friggin' band and their CDs will be stuck in my changer for a very long time, or atleast until the new T00L album is released. Favorite tunes at the moment have got to be Stella and Leif Eriksson. Dig the darkness.
i LOVE interpol. i saw them in concert at curiosa a few months ago. my current favorite song is 'slow hands" they have a great video for it by the way.
