$14.98 (list price), Rock, Capitol Basic Story: Rock n’ Roll’s moodiest contributors deliver their highly anticipated third album and first on a major label.
Sample: “I will stride you with desire/ the fault line, no crutch, no stall/ and I can bind you with no ties or leash and watch you fall/ see I got this soul/ it's all fired up.”
Verdict: The comparisons to Joy Division can officially stop. Not that they were ever entirely accurate, but on Our Love To Admire, Interpol seem to have replaced some of the darkness with…dare I say…pop sensibilities. The songs are much shorter and concise this time around, and singer Paul Banks’ voice has been moved up in the mix revealing just how strong it has become. Fans of old will be pleased and new fans will be made, especially with such beastly tracks as “Mammoth.”
