Watch Interpol's Weird New Video

Interpol are making quite a splash lately- is it 2002 again? They have a new album coming September 7- called Interpol. Their 4thLP is self titled? Are you kidding me? It was bad enough when Broken Social Scene did that for their second album. The group also is on the cusp of starting an expansive tour, but they're not hitting Vancouver so I don't care. We gather here today to watch the new video for their single “Lights”. Directed by Charlie White (who also did the clip for Interpol's song “Evil” from Antics), the video is sterile, morose, and fetishizes boredom and slow movements. So its definitely Interpol. Elsewhere Consequent of Sound is streaming a couple live recordings of two new songs from the upcoming album, “Summer Well” and “Success”. Appropriate summer listening no doubt.
