I really wish I knew more people that listen to Interpol, so they can relate with me on how Interpol makes me feel. Every time I listen to them it puts me in a certain mood and I can't quite describe it. It just calms me .I'm sure all the fans know what I mean.

[@jupiterjazzybelle]

yes!! to me they somehow sing the way that id describe my emotions. it feels so relatable and pauls voice is everything

[@Daniel_Bianco]

I keep thinking with myself if all true fans of a certain band feel like this band transmit these feelings like Interpol does. Not the mood, but the "this complete me" feeling. But Interpol sure seems something else... if there is one thing I can say it's that I've never felt this way with any other band

[@jupiterjazzybelle]

@@Daniel_Bianco agreed. i wish i could see them live because i know it would be one of the best moment’s of my life

[@Daniel_Bianco]

@@jupiterjazzybelle You will! I had the same wish, so last year I flew with my gf from São Paulo, in Brazil, to New York to see Interpol in Madison Square Garden. It was one of the happiest nights in my life! Seeing a guy screaming Obstacle 1 chorus in the street was also unforgetable. I hope that you accomplish this dream and have a magical show night someday

[@arcacoma3524]

I've stopped telling others about them..You either get them and realise what a superb band and performers they are,along with the lyrical geniuses they are...Or you dont...Absolutely uniquely the pure form of perfectionist music...The deep undertones and honesty in their tracks are really so so so an unbelievable set of life's experiences and relatable stories

[@MissSparks92]

THIS. I dont even share it unless I know the person is intelligent and I secretly judge people who dont like them haha

[@keithkoenig5320]

I dig Interpol too, but I'm a little older and heard and saw the many Post-Punk bands they 'borrowed' from. Those bands did it better, and anyone who knows Post-Punk will tell you that Interpol is aping that exact sound and vibe. Again, I like the band, but there isn't one thing this band does that is original and that isn't painstakingly contrived...They peaked early on. You have to admit that. They couldn't take the concept very far. "Perfectionist Music" this is NOT... ...oh, and every time I hear Daniel Kessler's silly vocals on the chorus of "PDA", I want to slap him. So fake and so incredibly bad. Will say that Sam Fogarino is a bad ass drummer, to be sure. "Lyrical Genius", though? C'mon...😂😂😂

[@MissSparks92]

You have sh** taste in music then...LOL that's not Interpol's problem. PDA is one of the best songs by Interpol, tf are you going on about? You sound like a h8ter,not someone who "digs" them in the slightest. I've never heard a "fan" spit so many insults in a comment before in my life. Interpol is amazing and music is often inspired by other music, go figure @@keithkoenig5320🤦‍♂🤦‍♂🤦‍♂

Why is the audio in this 21 year old recording SOOOO much better than a festival performance I just watched that is from 2023. Also, Dengler needs to get back with this band. There's a certain flair and style he brings that "just a bass player" doesn't bring to the sound. It's saucy, sassy, and there are accents on certain notes that just aren't felt with the other couple guys they've had. Why can't everything just be perfect the way it was? Lol
