    By the way, guess where I got my username ;) Opening track of closer, the drums in that song are amazing.

    That was the first Joy Division song I've ever heard (apart from Love Will Tear Us Apart of course), still blows me away. I love your little Aphex avatar by the way.

    Anyway, I'm being a bad off topic mod, back to Interpol!

    why thank you Mr. Mod
    *btw he wrote that song about a novel from J.G. Ballard, his favourite writer. I'm reading that now. It's so strange.


    NYC on TOTBL is amazing.. It's such a beautiful song

    I have that aphex tattoo if you wanna see

    I'd also recommend listening to The Sound. They hardly got any recognition in the 80's but "All Fall Down" is a great post punk album

    Interpol at Oxygen Green Room= one the best gigs I've ever been to.

    I too was at that gig. Had to put up with listening to the truly awful Athlete beforehand to get a front row place but it was well worth it. They had fantastic stage presence and played a great variety from both Lights and Antics

    Yous can hate me as much as you want but i prefer Antics. I'm not a massive fan and i started getting into them when antics was released so i prefer it. Although i haven't listened to totbl as much. I love slow hands and evil.

    i prefer antics, initially i thought it wasnt very good but it quickly grew on me and imo i think its the more consistent album

    TOTBL.... because of songs like "Untitled" and "The New".
    It's a hard decision to make really not like the answers in black and white.
    Yum... I'll have a Paul Banks please (just had to add that in there) :)

    i was there myself. unbelievable.
    i think the fact that it was indoors and pretty dark as well as having that cool red lighting behind them set the scene.
    everyone just went nuts.

    Antics: Music for teenagers, a plethora of guff that slots in nicely with all the other ****e the shiny musical kid friendly media like to thrust down our throats or in our ears as the case may be.



    TOTBL: Superb Debut. Pity they devolved, "in a hurry" methinks

    I liked them. If I was a teenager I would like them more, but Im not.

    Great logic. Everything changes the second you turn 20 of course.

    music for teenagers being a generalisation as such.

    Is that logically enough explained.

    Maybe an essay on "I think Im gonna need a bigger page as some people dont get my drift"


    Its my opinion on a bands albums...lets not fight boys n girls or this could become a Football Fan thread

    If you like TOTBL I would HIGHLY recommend this:
    Editors : The Back Room

    More Joy Division / Echo and the Bunnymen leanings.
    So what if there are comparisons...if it sounds good.....

    Oh, sorry! Was that first quote about Antics, or the Back Room?

    Speaking of Piss... Does anyone, while at these supergigs, prefer to piss in a bottle or the pitch rather than spend 40 mins trying to get to the jax and back.

    And you're not a teenager?
