Beginning, middle, end

Interpol are among the most pleasing retro musicians of the last decade, I am always of the opinion that's good swiped better editor ... Often Interpol were compared to Joy Division, which is nonsense, are a few dark undertones and slightly geknödelter singing for a long time no Ian Curtis. Comparisons with Kitchens of Distinction make the matter even more, but who knows anyway no more.

Concerning their self-titled fourth studio album, so seie say so: it is by far their worst. The album as a whole does not have a central theme and up to 3 (of 10) songs seem to be here incorporated much of the Resterampe me. The singles are pale ("Lights") to alarmingly inconsequential ("Barricades"). Were it not for the three exceptions, the album stands in no case here, but "Success" is a great opener that promises a lot, but is only in the middle of the plate of "Always Malaise (The Man I Am)" topped. The master stroke comes only as a bouncer: "The Undoing" is the best Interpol song ever, the best of the plate anyway and the best Albumcloser the year, threatening, restless, dark, I have to think of Chameleons, a somber humming in the background when the song is over, you have to hear it again and think, horny plate ... :), clever Interpol
