Have you listened to "Interpol"?
If not, you should. That is, if you like that alt.rock stuff.

1. I love both of their albums...although a lot of people don't...
I find a lot of people react to them in a "..theoretically I should like this band, but they don't do it for me" way.

But I'm super into both their records.

3. I'm one of those.
All the elements are there - Interpol are post-punk revivalists (about damn time that stuff got a revival, though it deserves a better one than Radio 4 and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are giving it), and they're obviously Joy Division & Wedding Present enthusiasts (I fully and enthusiastically endorse fandom of both of those bands), but their records don't do shit for me.

7. The most distinctive voice ever, second only perhaps to Ian Curtis

9. I bought ANTICS the day it came out!
And my copy of Turn On The Bright Lights... is worn to almost nothing from being played so much!

They rock. One of the greatest new bands. A nice breath of fresh air when compared to most of the CRAP coming out of the music scene these days.

10. Rock On, Brother
Why do I get the feeling nobody at Free Republic would know what the hell I'm talking about?

11. Because they are uncultured DOLTS. Imbeciles, really.
