Interpol

[GorkerMorker]

OLTA was enough progression for me, they ventured too far from their rock-solid origins already. If it were up to me they kept making songs like this, can't get enough of it.

Love the track btw.

[forevermusic]

Good song but needs more drum and bass.

[Max]

Boring.

Damn! You beat me to it!

It is so DULL though. It sounds like a poor outtake from their last album.

[sprocketeer]

Yeah, it has kind of a "B-side" feel to it. It's not a bad song by any means, but it's a very generic one.

I recall reading in a recent interview that Interpol planned on going back to the style of Turn On the Bright Lights with this album. But this new song seems to lack that spark of greatness.

[Muse are terrible]

Hopes aren't high for the new album. I loved TOTBL and was kinda bored by the rest of the albums but that said I don't want another TOTLB. I want them to move in a brave new direction, I wanna put the CD in and listen think "Wow........... is this really INTERPOL?". But Lights suggests to me that wont happen and it'll be exactly like what we've heard before, except perhaps more boring.

[Creeper McSexyPants]

Ok, Lights was on ok song, I suppose it'll grow on me.

But damn, that logo is fucking terrible.

[sprocketeer]

Yeah, I hope that logo is some sort of placeholder. It reeks of some cheesy, unreadable text effect I made in high school Photoshop. :p

[kjk62289]

i like interpol :happy:

Carlos leaving Interpol...

[seregon]

Carlos leaving Interpol...

http://www.interpolnyc.com/news.html

Meh doesn't surprise me, it's a real shame though

[shadowkay]

He hasn't really been put to much good use recently. Shame to see him leave, but not suprising.

[Iddy]

:( He's one of my favourite bassists. Pretty gutted.

[Josh =/]

That's utterly crap. At least he's on the recording I suppose.

[Creeper McSexyPants]

Ahhh, God I loved him. Such a sick bassist...

[seregon]

He did start acting for quite some time as if he was not interested in being in a band anymore.. fans were slating him for being rude etc so that's why it hasn't come as a surprise.

[Velourio]

Interpol = Carlos D


So, RIP interpol

[Josh =/]

Interpol = Carlos D


So, RIP interpol

Wouldn't go that far, but its a big blow.

[GorkerMorker]

That sure is a loss, the bass was such a vital role in Interpol's music.

[forevermusic]

That sure is a loss, the bass was such a vital role in Interpol's music.

Agreed. He'll be sorely missed.

[gwezza]

That sure is a loss, the bass was such a vital role in Interpol's music.True, but someone else could play those parts + they could do with less porn tash.
New album-beyond excited

[seregon]

True, but someone else could play those parts + they could do with less porn tash.


tache* Sorry I really hate it when people spell it like that

[James.]

It's a shame that Carlos is leaving, but I'm guessing he just wanted a change, so good luck to him.
Any live dates they do this Autumn won't be the same without Mr Dengler for sure.
I'm wondering who will be playing bass on the tour and also who else is joining the band, since they mentioned recruits. They said 'illustrious players' so that is hinting about well known musicians. Interesting.

[Max]

Well that pretty much makes me less interested in Interpol now. Their new album might still be good (even though Lights is boring as fuck) but anything after that will have something missing unless their replacement can match Carlos in terms of mad skillz.

[scorpiocheech]

That sucks there's no more Carlos... I vote for Little Jack Lawerence of The Racontuers and The Dead Weather to replace him! :D

[gwezza]

tache* Sorry I really hate it when people spell it like that:phu:

Free download of their new song "Lights" on www.interpolnyc.com atm.

Its a nice chilled out, atmospheric track. Reminds me of TOtBL

In what way?

[Talking Head]

(even though Lights is boring as fuck)

Agree.

While Carlos' bass sound is a very intricate element of the Interpol sound, he didn't write all his lines and was kind of an ass anyway. I don't think it will be the end of Interpol but they've got to get someone good to replace him.

Either way I was a fan girl during the Bright Lights era so I'd probably think anything they put out now is crap.

[GorkerMorker]

He was such a character on stage though. He ensured the appearance of a couple of people who were just really passionate about playing music to the highest standards possible and immersing the audience with that passion.

[interpolpirate]

In what way?

The relaxed vibe of it reminds me of NYC or Untitled I suppose.

[gwezza]

Interpol I love you, please don't break up :(

[Madam Harkonnen]

I'll never see that cardigan again, or that little mincing walk.

:'(

(Gwezza - I'm not following you around, promise! :))

Listening to Lights just made my supermarket trip that lot more epic :happy: :awesome:

Of all the times I saw them, he only spoke on the mic once.

I'd love to see them at Brixton! Last time, Scarlett and I saw them at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool and then again the next night in London at the Alexandra Palace.

Blackpool was great - our hotel was directly opposite the stage door, so we hung around to meet them afterwards. Everyone else was saying, "Oh, I might need to go so to get my train. Where are you two staying?" And we pointed over our shoulders, "There."

ETA: it was great to meet you, by the way! Dammit, I love our band for letting me meet such wonderful people :happy:

I might buy a ticket nearer the time hmm

[James.]

I missed their last gig at Rock City in 2004 even though I had a ticket (something came up), so I'm looking forward to seeing them there this time.
Sheffield and Ally Pally on the last tour were great gigs.
It'll be a shame that Carlos won't be up there on stage though. :(

[Velouria]

As long as we still have Daniel's bendy-legged dancing all is not lost. :LOL:

[seregon]

As long as we still have Daniel's bendy-legged dancing all is not lost. :LOL:

Oh god yeah, I love that! :LOL:

[STOTTM]

Interpol,yes Liverpool uni.Shame that Bass player Dengler has left just hope it wont affect their live performance as they were excellant at Manc appollo Antics tour.

[James.]

The people joining them on the forthcoming live dates have been revealed.


Hey gang,

We'd like to take a moment to introduce you to our new editions:
Two fresh faces who will be joining us live on our upcoming tours.

On Bass: Dave Pajo

Pajo has a vast body of work. He was the guitarist for Slint. He has recorded as Papa M and Ariel M. And he has worked with Tortoise, Will Oldham, Zwan, and numerous other artists. So, you know....do the math.

On Keys and Vox: Brandon Curtis

Curtis is a member of the Secret Machines. Enough said.

We are very excited and honored to be working with such talented individuals.

Come and see why.

Interpol

[Meep]

Got a ticket for Edinburgh :yesey: On a whim really, realised they're one of those bands I've overlooked live ... can't wait :happy:

[Creeper McSexyPants]

Interpol released their video for Lights today!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_CalTEVCOs

They also played Lights and two new songs last night in NY but no one's seemed to post them on YouTube :(

[sprocketeer]

New single - "Barricade" - now available on iTunes. :)

Much better song than "Lights" IMO.

[Josh =/]

new song's alright, better than lights

[forevermusic]

NME's heard the record: http://www.nme.com/blog/index.php?blog=140&title=interpol_interpol_first_listen&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

Should be a good album... I like the song Summer Well which I've heard a live bootleg of. And Barricade has got a sweet funk going on.

[James.]

The bass on Barricade is so good. :happy:
Makes me sad that it's the last album with Carlos though. :(

[Burning_October]

Excited for the new album. Lights is definitely a grower, but its an excellent build up of atmosphere once you get into it. And Barricade is so catchy it hurts.

[Libertine]

Album has leaked.

Pretty disappointed really. :(

[Iddy]

I love it!

[LiT]

OLTA > new album

[forevermusic]

I'm not hearing it till it comes out. I'm guessing it'll take a few listens to appreciate though.

[sprocketeer]

I was told that a leak dropped a few weeks ago but apparently it was in disastrous quality. Has a decent one popped up? Because if not, I'll just wait until the actual release.
OLTA > new album
Really? Ouch. That said, I probably already like "Barricade" more than nearly all of OLTA's tracks.

[Iddy]

A 320 one has popped up. Links keep getting blocked though.

And it's miles better than OLTA for me. Feels more like an album and I love its dark/moody nature. It depends on what kind of Interpol you like; from comments I've seen, you'll either love or hate the new album - there's no inbetween really.

[LiT]

Well, OLTA is their best album, so...

[forevermusic]

Well, OLTA is their best album, so...

I love OLTA more than TOTBL and Antics but I'm not that fussed after Pace is the Trick with the exceptions of Rest My Chemistry and The Lighthouse.

[Max]

Rest My Chemistry is such an epic tune. I'm not that keen on Our Love To Admire in comparison to the previous two records but there are some good songs on it here or there.

[Meep]

I really like Pace is the Trick :yesey:

[shadowkay]

Well, OLTA is their best album, so...
wat

[seregon]

Well, OLTA is their best album, so...

It's my least favourite tbh :/

[Llama of Time]

OLTA is easily my least favorite. I love Turn on the Bright Lights and Antics but OLTA is just meh to me.

[sprocketeer]

Yeah, OLTA is also my least favorite, which is why I was a bit taken aback by LiT's earlier comment. "Pace is the Trick" is, however, the one track that I feel really stands out on an otherwise mundane album. "Rest My Chemistry" isn't bad, either. I could do without everything else. Yeah, I'm one of those oh-so-typical TOTBL fanatics. Big surprise.

I'll scout out a decent leak once I get back from vacation, but I'll keep my expectations reasonable given the mixed reception it's already receiving.

[Iddy]

I've found a link. PM me if you want it, I don't think I'm allowed to post it on here...am I?

[forevermusic]

I prefer OLTA to TOTBL but TOTBL is catching up in my like of it.

[Creeper McSexyPants]

I'm really loving it, maybe even more than Antics.

So at the moment it goes:

TOTBL > Interpol > Antics > OLTA.

[Iddy]

I'm really loving it, maybe even more than Antics.

So at the moment it goes:

TOTBL > Interpol > Antics > OLTA.

Same, although Antics and Interpol are either equall or I just prefer Interpol.

[The Spiral Static]

I like that this album has a darker tone like TOTBL, but at some parts, it's more creepy than dark, like the Always Malaise piano. It sounds like it's from a horror movie soundtrack.

I just really can't get into the second half of the album. Everything that made me love Interpol is missing from the last 3 songs. There is basically no bass at all and what the hell is up with the random f-bomb in Try It On? And as for the Spanish in The Undoing...:facepalm:

[Iddy]

I looooove the Spanish in The Undoing! That's probably my favourite song:LOL:

[Josh =/]

I've got the album, it's better than I thought it was going to be...

[J-man]

memory serves is unreal

[Vespertine]

About the new album, from track 01 to 05 It's ok, I like (my favourite is Lights). Track 06 to 10, I have to listen to again.

[GorkerMorker]

New album is great, a beautiful blend of all their past albums, but that considered plus it being self-named leaves me the nagging feeling this will be their last :(

[forevermusic]

Not a bad album but this is my first listen - it needs more than one full listen for me to form an opinion. I have heard Barricade and Lights a few times and like them but need to listen to rest a few times tbh.

The Try It On -> All Of The Ways -> The Undoing segue works very nicely.

[GorkerMorker]

Barricade and lights are thankfully the weaker songs on the album.

[Llama of Time]

I've only listened once, need to listen again, but first impression- not good at all. I really did not like it. Even less than OLTA and I didnt like OLTA. I'm extremely disappointed

Band has fallen really far for me. Turn on the Bright Lights was fantastic. Antics was not quite as good but still great and a good follow up. OLTA isnt very good and as of right now Interpol is even worse. Each album has gotten progressively worse...

Again I need to listen again but thats my initial opinion

[Molkette]

As usual, give it a chance, it's a grower!

I was kind of sceptical when I first listened to "Lights" and "Barricade" but after listening to the whole album quite a few times, I've felt for it!
Paul's cavernous voice is just killing me and I think there's a good balance between slow and rockier songs.

Now I just can't wait to seeing them Friday in Paris and next Tuesday in Lille! It's been a while since I've last seen them all. It's gonna be weird not seeing Carlos I think...

[Velouria]

Some of the vocals on the early songs on the new album seem a bit dodgy. :erm:

Safe Without is beautiful, and I love the way Always Malaise builds as it goes towards the end.

Not that keen on Lights or Barricades at the moment.

[GorkerMorker]

Not that keen on Lights or Barricades at the moment.

Agreed. I'm really glad the rest of the album is far better than the songs used as promotion.

[Velouria]

Finally listened to all the songs now, and The Undoing is lovely.

[GorkerMorker]

Now I've listened to it a bit more I've concluded that this album is extremely good. They've perfected the style that makes the band what it is. It's amazing.

[Velouria]

Yep it's a grower, I'm even warming to Lights now. :LOL:

[Talking Head]

As long as we still have Daniel's bendy-legged dancing all is not lost. :LOL:

Agreed :D

I will always love Daniel.

[GorkerMorker]

Damn I can't wait.

[Iddy]

Going to see them in Leeeeeeeds next year :D

[Always]

I adore them

[gwezza]

Aw the new album is so good.

Nothing will ever beat The Lighthouse, but hey ho

[JDanooch]

PDA ftw. The last 2 minutes are the meaning of lifeee. Favorite non-Muse song

[JDanooch]

Agreed :D

I will always love Daniel.

http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4084/4978917422_28dc7e9a63_b.jpg

Yesh.

[JDanooch]

I miss Carlos. :(

http://www.papermag.com/blogs/CarlosDengler.jpg

[shadowkay]

I miss Carlos. :(

http://www.papermag.com/blogs/CarlosDengler.jpg
Him and Sam were the best thing about the band, but they have been trimmed back so much over the last two albums, now Carlos is gone, I really think they are just going to wither.

[gwezza]

Yep it's a grower, I'm even warming to Lights now. :LOL:

Lights is fucking amazing, their growers are their best songs I find.

I love them so much, I think they may have inched into my top 10 bands evah :happy:

I'm off to read and listen to Lights again and again and...again

[GorkerMorker]

Next week :D

[James.]

Next week :D

Next Wednesday for me, should be great. I'm going to miss Carlos being there though.

[klock]

Next Wednesday for me, should be great. I'm going to miss Carlos being there though.

What's weird though is that the new bass player looks eerily similar to Carlos. Maybe they thought some fans wouldn't notice the difference. :LOL:

[forevermusic]

12 days.

Blimey it's coming up quickly.

[Girl_Afraid]

If anyone's interested...I have 2 tickets for sale for the Brixton gig on Dec 7th. Face value of course :happy:

[Burning_October]

Got tickets to the Vancouver show :D.

[Max]

Still not sure on the new one. :erm: There are some good moments on it in terms of the sound they've got going but I'm not massively in love with it.

[gwezza]

Still not sure on the new one. :erm: There are some good moments on it in terms of the sound they've got going but I'm not massively in love with it.

Dude, listen to lights again. That is all :happy:

[GorkerMorker]

Tomo...TODAY! :LOL:

[Max]

Dude, listen to lights again. That is all :happy:

I've definitely warmed to Lights now. :yesey: Fits in nicely with the context of the album. It just didn't really click for me when I was listening to it as a free download.

[gwezza]

It's so beautiful and underrated, as is The Lighthouse, they are probably two of my favourite songs of all time. Barricade is awesome as well. Success is cool, Memory Serves is good once you've listened to it a few times. In fact, the only song I can fault is Safe Without, and even then it's only cos it;s a tad boring but the echoy drummy things in it are cool - lots of layers. You hear new stuff when you listen to the songs more :happy:

/gush

EDIT: listening to lights now. So happy, and sad, and happy.

[Muse are terrible]

I find it sad to see how panned the record seems to be, it's by far my second favourite Interpol album. Might be my #2 record for 2010 as well. Though the individual songs on there might not be Interpol's best, as an album as a whole it just works so well! It's not immediate, I wasn't that impressed first listen but it's really really grown on me.

[James.]

I'd love to hear this live. Well I can dream.
They played it at the second night at Alexandra Palace in 2007. I went to the first...

e7wLPsic-24

[Max]

I might see if I can get to their third Brixton show...

[shadowkay]

Me too, its a shame their new stuff isn't anywhere near as good :(

[GorkerMorker]

Their entire repertoire blends in perfectly on stage, especially the new stuff.

Paul cocked up the Heinrich Manoeuvre at the end because he missed the count down. But hey, the band could afford that after such a tight set.

[James.]

That was an amazing gig. There was lots of bendy legged dancing from Mr Kessler. :chuckle:
I felt a bit sorry for poor David, he seemed a bit separated from the rest of the band off at the right side of the stage. In fact it seemed like it was Interpol at the left side and then the extras at the right. :LOL:
The setlist surprised me a bit, but they were nice surprises.

Slightly strange ordering but looks like a good setlist. The New in particular is a very impressive surprise.

Can't wait for Friday at Birmingham :awesome:

[Burning_October]

Is Obstacle 1 not a regular in setlists? Because it needs to be.

[James.]

C4bq53OlQlI
The sound's not great, my camera struggles a bit for sound quality at the barrier.

[Llama of Time]

They didn't impress me at Voodoo, but I think I was in the wrong environment for them. It was the middle of the day and the hottest it had been all weekend. Not to mention that after an awesome set by Janelle Monae and with Deadmau5 coming up, I was pumped up and ready for something more energetic. And not to mention the crowd around me wasn't moving much and didn't seem to be big fans. Probably would have been better on the non-VIP side.

But anyways, it just seemed boring. Nothing sounded bad, it just wasn't something I really cared to hear live. But factors above probably contributed.

If they come back through Houston, I'd give them another chance.

[forevermusic]

Really good show last night. The crowd was alright - particulary down the front (although it was a bit meh in the balcony were I was).

We got:
Success

Barricade
Length of Love
Rest My Chemistry
Slow Hands
C'mere
Safe Without
Summer Well

Not sure aabout some of their placings but that sounds about right.

[Velouria]

I've just come back from Brixton, and they were bloody great. The new keyboard player (Secret Machines guy?) does some really great backing vocals and the bassist seems to interact really well with Daniel. Sadly my limited view meant that I did not see enough of Daniel's bendy-legged dancing. :LOL:

The stuff from the new album sounds very good live (even my old nemesis Barricades). We also got a good helping of old stuff, though neither Obsticles IIRC. PDA and Length of Love were particularly good, and Evil got the crowd singing.

I enjoyed it so much that I may see if I can get a ticket for Wednesday.

One thing is for certain though, I never want to hear from Surfer Blood again. Absolute drivel, seeming to cross Vampire Weekend with bits that New Order and Pixies threw away. The singer did bring the lols though when he had extreme trouble climbing back onto the stage after going into the audience.

Yeah Surfer Blood were a bit meh really.

I was just between Daniel and Paul on the barrier for the Nottingham gig. Daniel's dancing was very bendy-legged indeed. I really like Success as an opener. The new songs all fitted into the set very well.
One thing I noticed, Daniel has a ridiculous amount of effects pedals. :LOL:

I really, really liked the first support, with the bloke on drums, woman on guitar and vocals, and other woman on accordian-thing and percussion. Didn't catch their name, sadly.

Success is indeed a brilliant opener. :yesey:

Hmm, ticketweb still have tickets for Wednesday, and they are the PDF ones you print yourself...

There was only one support at Nottingham, which was Surfer Blood, sadly. Poor after the awesomeness of Ladytron on the last tour.

[Girl_Afraid]

I still have 2 standing tickets for tonight that I'm trying to sell...can meet up at Brixton to hand over.
Send me a message on here or better still on Facebook :D

[Velouria]

There's some more UK dates in March, tickets go on sale on Friday.

I'm still debating about getting a ticket for tomorrow night.

[Maximus]

Just ordered for Leeds next year, I missed out on this tour, I'm not making the same mistake twice! I haven't seen this band live since the Antics tour!

*edit* and my Turn off the bright lights tshirt is too large, damn you weight loss!!

[_silverrose_]

Got my tix for Feb 15th in Toronto :happy:

[J-man]

Got my tix for Feb 15th in Toronto :happy:

right on! i'll be at that show as well. Saw them once before in toronto- just too good. Can't wait for round two. Hopefully the sound academy is a decent venue I've never been.

[_silverrose_]

I don't remember if I've been there :chuckle: I've gone to too many shows :LOL: Never seen Interpol though so I'm excited, should be good! Maybe we'll run into each other! I'm going with another Muser.

[J-man]

Maybe we will! That would be cool, maybe I'll wear my muse shirt aha. If you've never seen interpol before you're totally in for a treat though the last gig i was at was so intimate, just perfection.

[_silverrose_]

haha alright, I'll wear Muse too, easy to pick out
You going to the Biffy Clyro show the next day?

[J-man]

haha alright, I'll wear Muse too, easy to pick out

I would kill to go see them, but it was 18+ for the concerts in my country. You're really lucky to see them and I'm sure you'll like plenty more songs after seeing them live

[samanthrax]

im sure i will. im a huge fan of 'she wants revenge' and they kindof have the same sound. i have 3 interpol albums on my ipod, i just never got around to listening to them. my sister won tickets, so thats why im going. im sure itll be great, its just the venue theyre playing sucks cuz its all seats. :erm:

On this most recent tour, they are coming to Helotes, Texas, but no where around here. Jerks :(

Though they were just here in October, but they only came because they were playing Voodoo. And I was at Voodoo while they were here. I want another date so I can see them in a proper atmosphere

[Burning_October]

Saw them yesterday, they rocked the house. Really great band. Rest My Chemistry and The New in particular were absolutely brilliant live.

i was fucking around with the settings on my camera all night, thats why some of the pics turned out way better than others. what a piece of shite. :LOL:

[Molkette]

Wow, this looks like a nice venue!

Does Paul still wear that hideous haircut of his?:p

Hey, a fellow Vancouer muser :D. Yeah, orpheum is a beautiful place, though is it just me or was the sound really off?

[samanthrax]

i thought the sound was the best part?! but i was right in the middle pretty much. i cant say im a fan of the orpheum though. id choose more space to dance over sound any day!

[Burning_October]

I just found it very echoey. Maybe I was farther back under the balcony, so the sound bounced around a little more. In any case, good show. Though yeah, as much as the Orpheum is a great building, i'd take a lot of other venues over it.

[samanthrax]

yes, like the commodore!! thats probably my favorite venue, and the plaza of nations. =)

[Burning_October]

I dislike commodore just because I can't yet get in :LOL:. Malkin Bowl gets my vote for mid-size venue.
