New York City's own Interpol will release Interpol Live, the band's first-ever official live recordings, today, exclusively through thinkindie.com. Thinkindie.com services independent music retailers with exclusive and rare items that are not available via major chain and big-box stores.
The six-song Interpol Live EP features two tracks from the band's gold-certified 2002 debut Turn On the Bright Lights ("Obstacle 1," and "Stella Was a Diver And She Was Always Down") and four tracks from Interpol's current album Our Love To Admire, which debuted at Number Four on Billboard's Top 200 chart–the band's highest debut in the U.S. to date–upon its release by Capitol Records in July 2007. Those tracks are "Pioneer to The Falls," "Mammoth," "Rest My Chemistry," and "The Heinrich Maneuver"
Interpol Live, which was recorded at the Astoria club in London on July 2, 2007, captures the power of Interpol's enigmatic stage show–a spectacle witnessed by hundreds of thousands of fans during the band's recent North American headlining tour, which included sold-out shows at New York City's Madison Square Garden and the Los Angeles Forum.
