Obstacle 1 by Interpol

“I've been relistening to this album repeatedly for the first time in years. I had forgotten why I liked the album before I dismissed the band for being Joy Division clones. This album really captures NYC better than I think any band since The Velvet Underground. They really capture this clash of Gothamite sheen with seedy underbelly. There's a quality to the song writing that's more akin to short stories than song lyrics that is startling hearing this album ten years after it's debut.”

Decided to take a last minute trip to Manchester last night for the NME Awards Tour. Well worth it...   2
