Obstacle 1I wish I could eat the salt off your lost faded lipsWe can cap the old times,make playing only logical harm

We can cap the old lines, make playing that nothing else will changeBut she can read, she can read, she can read, she can read, shes badShe can read, she can read, she can read, shes badOh, shes bad

But its different now that Im poor and aging, Ill never see this face againYou go stabbing yourself in the neck

And we can find new ways of living, make playing only logical harmAnd we can top the old times, clay making that nothing else will changeBut she can read, she can read, she can read, she can read, shes badShe can read, she can read, she can read, shes badOh, shes bad

Tenho feito isso desde o primeiro dia, usar o tempo

verbal errado, ou introduzir um non-sequiturnumafrase que, de resto, est bem construda. Uma pequenamudana no meio.

A ideia no apenas evocar uma reao escrita, maspr o leitor ou ouvinte a perguntar-sepor que o fiz. um processo de pensamento secundrio: no apenas oque digo, mas porque o digo deste modo.

Uma origem no desejoDaniel Kessler - Guitarra"It took me a long time to commit to the idea

that if I didn't make a foray into music and find a

band to be in, then I would probably end up

very miserable. I never had delusions of

grandeur but it gave me such a good feeling

when I wrote songs even though they were

very private and no one ever heard them that

I knew I had to try to do this."

Carlos Dengler - BaixoIn terms of what Interpol did with Turn on the

Bright Lights, I would say not even Arcade Fire

hits you with this, like, wow - youre just like,

OK. I mean, I think Arcade Fire are brilliant, but

I dont think that you really walk away from

them feeling like youve been transformed.

Paul Banks - Voz e guitarra

It came out of seeing a really beautiful girl

and feeling unbelievable longing and sadness

about her lack of awareness of myexistence.

I just had this huge amount of pain from

age 14 on, where I would fall so head over

heels with girls and couldnt have contact

with them, I felt that if I cant have that

beauty in my life, then I have to create

something comparable.

[Cmere] is a jaded love song - very bitter. I

will freely admit I gravitate towards the same

themes of relationships, distance and

proximity, and lust and longing. Thats what

inspires me the most.

Paul Banks

I have a quote from my favourite author, Henry

Miller, on my ribs. In one of his books, he was writingabout a troubled time in his life, and he says he was:Not wholly wrong, but deeply erring.

After I made some life changes it really resonated asa commemoration: Ive messed up and hurt otherpeople and those things are permanent.

You can make amends and redeem yourself, but thathappened. Im not going to say Im a terrible humanbeing, but I acknowledge that I made mistakes.

Paul Banks: I'm gonna guess we're talking Interpol and

not my solo work. So, I'd say The Newfrom our firstalbum.

Always been one of my favorite songs, and just represents

a real freedom that existed in our early writing.

It came from a place somewhere between not knowingwhat we were doing, and knowing EXACTLY what we weredoing. It's pure, and I love that track.

Meghann Wilhoite | Music Theory & Interpol

Uma coisa que me parece muito dramtica acerca da The New amudana (tambm dita modulao) da escala de D maior para ade Si menor a partir de cerca de metade da cano.

Em 2:22, ouvimos o sintetizador repetir sucessivamente as notas Si

e D, mas como o baixo est a tocar um F natural, estamos aindana escala de D maior. Em 2:56, o sintetizador mantm-se na notaSi, e a harmonia total predominante um acorde de Si diminuta(composto pelas notas Si-R-F), que o acorde construdo sobre a

tnica de D maior. O minuto 3:14 traz-nos finalmente escala deSi menor, com a guitarra a tocar sucessiva e repetidamente as notasSi e L#sendo esta ltima a nota dominante (ou tnica) da escalade Si menorenquanto ouvimos tambm o F natural no baixo,confirmando assim Si menor como a escala.

Tipicamente, as escalas maiores esto associadas felicidade,

escalas menores tristeza, enquanto os acordes diminutos soconsiderados ominosos. Se aceitarmos estas associaes:

estrutura da escala = resposta emocional

ento podamos ouvir a letra da primeira metade da cano, i.e. aestrofe, o pr-refro e o refro como correspondendo a D maior,

onde as palavras progridem:

- de um tom esperanoso: life will be better- para um tom contrafeito:I need to defend

medida que nos aproximamos do ominoso acorde de Si diminuta,em 2:56.

The clock is set for nine but you know you're gonna make it eight

All the people that you've loved they're all bound to leave some keepsakes

I've been swinging all the time, think it's time I learn your way

I picture you and me together in the jungle, it will be ok

I'll bring you when my lifeboat sails through the night

That is supposing that you don't sleep tonight

It's like learning a new languageAs we catch up on my mime

If you don't bring up those lonely parts

This could be a good time

It's like learning a new language

You come here to meWe'll collect those lonely parts and set them down

You come here to me...

The sudden exposure makes my mind recall the scene

Over my shoulder theres a lonely hearted thief

You only know me like the shorelineknows the sea

We raise the stones just like beginnings

We make our home above the stars again:

Behold

Over my shoulder theres a man that doesnt speakWoe expectations they will only make you weep

You only know me like the shorelineknows the sea

Over my shoulder there are phantoms indiscreet

We chase the tones as the sight begins

The gate is open and silence showers in

So behold the science: We all have our themes to play

Besides theres a life outside where our lucky passions

reign

You only hold me as the canyon holds the stream

We try to invade

Put some of us in each

At least try to hold the other

In the right light

This skys gonna break

Some of us die heroes

At least theyll never suffer

At least theyll always

On some sort of big wave beaches I wasdoing it at that point where it's a bit of an extreme sport and it's kindof dangerous. I found a place in Central America with great waves,Panama. The next step for me loving music was picking up the guitar,

and the next step for me loving the ocean was in trying out a surfboard. The reason surfers act like and are surfers is because it sort ofis the best thing ever. It satisfies you on primeval levels, as well asevery conscious level a person might understand.

Paul Banks:Yeah, I definitely like things that can be lookedat two different ways.

And I like doing things that are a little obtuse and that youcan't necessarily figure out. I like wordplay(jogo de palavras).

I like the idea very much that the title can either be atopical plural noun or just my last name. And I think theartwork kind of moves it in the direction away from beingabout my name too, so I like that.

As a younger artist, I sorta felt like everything should be

formless and shapeless and intuitive. But then I learnedthat frameworks can actually enhance the art. Its a similarlesson I learned when I was reading sonnets and poetrythat was restricted to form.

Instinctively, I felt that free-form poetrywithout therestrictions of iambic pentameter or rhyme schemeswasgonna be much more expressive.

Then I read John Donne. Then I read Shakespeare. And Iunderstood that you could not possibly encapsulate more

doing. And it revealed to me that maybe the limitations ofthe poetic structure, in some fucked up way, actuallyincreased your ability to communicate. And that maybe byapplying some framework to what Im doing, it will help.

Theres a reason that a lot of great songs have verse-chorus, verse-chorus, bridge. So that contributed to mysongwriting, when I realized that there is a formula.

But the key is to understand the formula, and then make ityour own. Then you can expand from there. Just like inchess: just embrace a standard opening and go from there.

I look back at some early work and love it, but I think I was

set more on "destroy" early on. That's a great place to getmotivation from, so I'd just write things with the intent ofdestroying meaning, destroying expectations, destroyingsense.

Now I'm much more interested in elegance and evenexploring more conventional forms.

identity/brand. Over the years my involvement as their Designer has been tocontribute and articulate ideas within that space.

How does a design come together initially? Do you hear the music as you goalong, or does a visual idea come first?David Calderly: Often the band may have a loose subject or theme and want tosee it articulated or explored as a visual idea. On the previous album, Paul hadbeen reading about the stones of Puma Punku and the Nazca lines in Peru, this

in turn led to the visual direction for the album art.

We caught up with David Calderley from Graphic Therapy for a few words aboutthe project:David Calderly: I had worked with Interpol on the previous album Our Love to

Admire, so obviously I was thrilled to be given the opportunity to work withthem again. I have always been a fan, so it was great to be involvedagain. Working closely with lead singer Paul Banks, the concept was influencedlargely by the ancient stones of Puma Punku and the concepts of navigation, re-alignment in both a physical and emotional space.
