PO: Interpol *El Pintor*


Recommended Posts

Band completely lost its track with their last album. And the side projects are far from brilliant as well.

 

I always save some credit for them 'cause their first two records are really good and the third, despite hated to some degree, had its moments.

 

But this new one will set the line between getting things back in track or definitely signing a retirement.

 

About the bass, the video shows Paul playing it, so I guess they must have shared the duty between him and Daniel. I don't think they have an official bass player for tours.

Okay, I'm incredibly excited about this album, but seriously, this is the band with the least authority to set a pre-order without attaching a song. It's been 4 years since the last album, and it was a pretty big departure from their previous stuff. I would've thought Matador would've been smarter than this.

 

Also not crazy about the artwork, but it's not terrible and at least it's not as bad as the S/T cover.

That drum beat is sick....I think this album is gonna be good! I really don't dislike any of their albums. They all are pretty "standard Interpol" IMO. I don't get why some people shit on there last 2? They seem to fit right in. Some people don't want bands to expand or change. Ironically, Interpol stays pretty true to a formula, just don't get it?
