I\u2019m guessing to better tweak the live production and to test out how the new material would sound. The music was very \u201cprofessional\u201d and the band showed very little emotion, but then again, it <em>IS<\/em> Interpol. Despite having a good set of music mixed with some old and new songs, the crowd was absolutely dead and the evening had less energy than I was expecting from such a special show. Nevertheless, it was a treat to hear the new material before the album comes out. Although it sounded good, I feel they haven\u2019t pushed their sound as far as they could and are being very \u2018safe\u2019. It\u2019s more of the same music and well, we\u2019ve already had a Joy Division.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/doublehalo.com\/pictures2007\/Interpol.html\">Pictures and video<\/a> from the show.<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.interpolnyc.com\/\"><br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.interpolnyc.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although the show was mainly filled with industry people, I got lucky to see Interpol at such a small venue.
