He's a dead ringer for the Chameleons guy.

ahh, thank you. my mom danced with their drummer once.

they make good background music. i put "..bright lights" on when i read. they don't really sound like the yoof to me, though.

there is no denying the singer sounds like Ian Curtis in some songs, but i do take onboard what your saying also, they do have a little Youth sound to em too.

yes turn on the bright lights is fantastic, and antics is terrible, its like, where did the edge go?

they don't sound like closer, but they do sound like other JD things, specificly some of the tracks on substance. and they sound like mogwai or godspeed because they have that sort of melodrama, and sound like a dilution of a dilution of SY, whereas SY's music is very sounding fluid, mogwai and GYBE are very rigid, and so are interpol. what i'm saying is i think any SY influence on interpol is indirect, and comes via other groups.

Ditto. They are a crappy band. The band that I have (which doesnt even exist) soundsmuch better than them.

I only like specialist, the reast is getting old.

I like Interpol, and I can understand where they get the joy division comparison, but it's not like the bass player is outright stealing hook's lines, which in my opinion, made the JD sound.

Meh. Interpol are alright, but I don't personally think that they sound very much like SY at all.

IntoTheGroovey 06.16.2006 11:47 PM
I like(d) turn on the bright lights but haven't listened to it in over a year.

Onani Nic 06.17.2006 01:20 AM
more like InterLOL.......

The fact interpol albums are available on vinyl is nearly a sacrilege! Very boring band.

I like the way someone wrote that they do sound like JD,yes,but without the claustrophobic intensity that they had.You couldn't put it any better than that.Anyway,what do i care........

Oh come on, you were all rockin the 'pol just like you were rocking linkin park till your little sisters started wearing the thongs.

Either way, I bet the singer of Interpol has a wicked pussy bush.

And if you think they sound more like sonic youth than joy division, you haven't listened to sonic youth or joy division.. and probably not interpol either.

Interpol sound like joy division, chameleons uk, and echo and the bunnymen fucking.

atsonicpark 06.18.2006 07:22 AM
Also ,they sound like Godspeed? WHAT?@!

motherboars are fucking protective... they go to all end to protect their young and shit.

porkmarras 06.18.2006 07:25 AM
I forgot to mention that Fennesz remixed Interpol,once, to great effect.

atsonicpark 06.18.2006 07:26 AM
Interpol is like one of those cds of nature sounds you buy to put you to sleep, only it's more boring. I buy their albums so i can listen to moleface preach about "stories are boring and stuff".

porkmarras 06.18.2006 07:27 AM
Not that i would spend any dosh on them to start with......
