Interpol

Interpol's 2002 debut album is an all timer for me, one of my favorite records ever, but they've never quite grabbed my attention with any subsequent release.  And i'm not saying that "This Mirror Weighs a Ton," the band's new LP, is anywhere near and dear to my heart as "Turn on the Bright Lights," it does at least have me paying attention again.  There's plenty of the band's early '00s post punk sound on the album, but they also branch out a little bit with moments of dreamy, albeit downcast, indie pop, like on "Iron City."  I'm going to have to give this one a few more listens.  As John Wick says, "Yeah, i'm thinking i'm back."  Listen below and get the LP here from Partisan Records.
