oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    The lead singer looks like a sixteen year old kid who's just been caught by his mum having a ham shandy, but doesn't care and carries on anyway. Don't you think? :D


    Not a fan of this lot, matey. I didn't even like Joy Division on the telly, when I was a kid.

    excellent description. :D


    but the bassist.. oh he looks amazing, magical. at least he did in Dusseldorf when they were opening for PJ. :o



    can't remember much of the songs though. just that I liked some very much and some of them were a bit meh.

    I think sometimes he resembles a young Ewan McGregor.

    awesome band, they have recently turned into one of my favorite bands. I saw them in concert when they came down to houston and they rocked, one of the best shows i've ever been to. and i agree, Carlos D. is the shiznit.

    First album is excellent, 2nd is good, 3rd isnt that good. Just my opinion.
    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.

    They're alright but my god do they suck live.

    Thats how I see them also...
    Conversations getting dull
    There's a constant ringing in my ears
    Sense of humor's void and numb
    And I'm bored to tears.......

    One of my All-Time Top 10 Favourite Bands ... enough said!

    By the way the comparisons with Joy Division are really cheap shit! I mean both bands have nothing in common soundwise it's just that their singers both have/had baritone voices but that's about it. It's like those dumb comparisons you had at the time when Creed came up and they compared them with that band from Seattle, can't quite remember their name ... whatever Interpol are a f###ing awesome band especially since they've cleaned up their act! I LOVE THEM!

    The first song on the first album, Untitled i think its called, is amazing. Love the intro and then the way the drums kick in, brilliant up loud!!
