Obstacle 1 is the one of my all time favorite songs.

That is a great song. I think it was the first thing I'd heard by them and was sort of resisting them up till that point. It just really got to me. Love it. Would possibly be one of my entries on the 'perfect songs' thread.

Interpol are great, but I can't help but think that "Slow Hands" is a total Joy Division rip-off...which nonetheless happens to be one of my fave songs of theirs.

Yeah, although I sort of get a bit narked when people just reduce them to that JD/Television thing. The influence is definitely there but, on the first album at least, it's not really overwhelming.

Question - Does "Obstacle 1" sound like "Exercise One" at all?

Obstacle 1, Leif Erikson and NYC for me, and maybe the intro, actually.

Haha. Actually it sounds like Exercise One with Tom Verlaine on guitar. Which does sort of completely destroy my entire argument in one fell swoop. Shit!

they're okay. my favourite song is the final one on Antics. I also like Evil. So Antics is OK. About as good as the first album, really.

Yes, shadowplay is definitely the best Interpol song.

...er...

(old, tired joke I made saying how every Interpol song sounded like Joy Division's shadowplay)

i dont think they sound like joy division at all... just because paul banks hasnt got a real note in his head doesnt mean he is ripping the shit out of curtis.... they are more u2 than joy division i reckon...

You know the big difference between Joy Division and Interpol is that Joy Division usually sounds very cold and hollow while Interpol doesn't sound that primitive. Interpol songs have alot more going on based on the instruments that is.

Either way Joy Division > Interpol big time hands down.
