The Official Interpol Thread (indie, vinyl, album, fan, band)

[Urban Hatemonger]

How can you know they`re better , you say you`ve heard one Joy Division song & you`ve never heard of Gang Of Four.

its called broadening your horizons. and as urban said, how do you know their better without listening to the originals? and for your info, joy division own interpol.

actually the first album is just as boring as the second.

anyone else sick of this trendy indie new wave rock plague?

well, i like the subways and nine black alps if you class them in this new wave. interpol, not an album fan, hot hot heat etc are quite good.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!

the first and last song on antics are boring though...any thoughts?
p.s. take you on a cruise is one of the best songs i ever heard!!

lol looks like im a bit different to you regarding interpol! im a huge interpol fan and i regard there first album as a masterpiece as many do, but, you do have to listen to it a few times!

as for the last song on antics, its my favourite on the album!!

[adidasss]

ok..we differ...it seems that people who like interpol are devided into two groups...the ones who like the first and hate the second one ...and those who love antics and find the first one a bit boring

[Urban Hatemonger]

or those of us that thought the first was was dull & the 2nd even duller

damn your annoying. the guy who doesnt listen to old music becuase he's 22, or who thinks interpol and bloc party etc are better than the oldies despite never listening to them...is open minded.....and we're narrow minded ("closedminded" wtf?). your logic and existence baffles me.
