NYC'S finest Interpol have issued a new track via their website. Called Lights, it starts off a little like Joy Division's Shadowplay but Paul Bank's vocals kick in and the lights seem to turn off.
Lights is a broody slow burner and Banks & co are clearly not giving much away here.
It's a bit of a disappointing return from arguably one of the finest bands out there today. It sounds like a Our Love To Admire cut and could easily have found its way onto the mediocre Julian Plenti is.....Skyscraper.
Still, I'm never one to write off a band but Interpol really need to pull something special out of the bag if their next LP is going to be any good,
Turn on the Bright Lights IS the best album ever and sophomore effort Antics showed exciting progression. But Our Love to Admire was tame and Lights seems to follow that formula.
Average.
Interpol -- Lights
