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

I would say Antics is Interpol trying to really hit the mainstream with accessible tunes, and as a result the album suffers. Interpol are at their best when making layered, texturised, measured music - something Antics lacks.

That said, i wouldnt say its a terrible album, i'd still take it over half the stuff being churned out, and it definately has its moments - in fact Public Pervert, Evil and A Time To Be Small are 3 of my favourite songs Interpol have ever done.
