I picked up "turn on the bright lights" by interpol today at best buy for 7 dollars based on the recommendation from some of you people here. I think it's pretty alright but the guy's voice kind of ruins some songs for me...the instrumentals seem really nice though.

it's pretty good stuff I recon.
Nothing out of this word, but the production is good, songs well structured. Not bad at all.

Lyrics could use a little work, other than that they're wonderful.

I love that album, but his voice does seem a bit... monotone sometimes... an excited yet disinterested monotone. What the fuck am I talking about?
Anyway, yeah, it was one of my faves of 2002, and they DON'T sound exactly like Joy Division like some would claim. But there's similarities... but that's a good thing.

the album was great, but they're going to have to diversify next time around if they want to keep my respect...

Good album.
Had a friend raving about it. He let me hear a few tunes off of it, and I decided to get it.

well, i finally picked this up. i had completely forgotten about it, actually, until i passed it in the record store today. it is, of course, fantastically delicious, and i'm very pleased with my purchase.
the only thing that worries me now is seeing that pigeon st. got it for seven dollars. i paid much more than that. =[

i got this album yesterday it really good it seems imo to have a mix of the late 80's/early 90's vocals (smiths,joydivision) with post grunge guitarin (seafood,llama farmers,placebo)
my favorite is obstacle 1

I saw them in Oslo, the day before Aphex Twin, and they rocked. The singer sounds like a mad priest or something.

stay away from the black ep, it's very much not worth the investment. go find an EP w/ the studio version of Specialist and buy that instead.

not a huge investment, if you ask me.

I just bought 'Turn on the bright lights', and my dad seems to like it. Oh, and I love it.
How constructive.
