Music reviews of Turn on the Bright Lights

Music Review: Focused filters
Rating: 4 Stars

Still one of the better introductive indie rock releases of the decade, guided by a boldly assertive streak of beginning tracks, Interpol's debut avoids a conscious songwriting strain early success brought with future output, instead providing more effortlessly angular, darkened pop, properly emulating the oft-milked Joy Division prototype.

Description of Turn on the Bright Lights

Australian version of the absolutely stunning full-length debut from New York's Interpol. Think Joy Division meets Psychedelic Furs, Echo & the Bunnymen and the Smiths. Includes the bonus track, 'Specialist'. Matador. 2002.

Interpol create literate, atmospheric, moody, trashy post-punk music that recalls '80s faves the Psychedelic Furs. And this is definitely a good thing. While most young bands are content to rhyme "make it" with "fake it," Interpol pens melodramatic tales of tortured and tortuous urban relationships that are truly refreshing. Like their peers the Strokes, they're bright, sophisticated, and meticulous enough to build stirring soundscapes. Turn On the Bright Lights is a must for anyone who missed Echo & the Bunnymen, the Furs, and Joy Division the first time around. --Dominic Wills
