Interpol go orchestral
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 18 December 2009
Interpol fans can expect the band’s third album, which they are currently in the process of recording, to have a more classical feel. Frontman Paul Banks told BBC 6music: “Carlos [Dengler, bassist] has gone to total new levels of crazy sophisticated orchestration. There’s some really classical stuff going on. I think he brings that elegant, orchestral quality and he’s gone even further with that. Daniel [Kessler, guitarist] and Carlos, they’ve really pushed what they do. It’s very atmospheric but it sounds really different in my mind. What we’ve worked on is a real step forward and just very different and very relaxed in what we’re doing, but it certainly doesn’t sound like anything we’ve ever done before, to me”.
