Assorted List from the Backissues
Interpol
war die erste Band des neues Jahrtausends, die sich des Joy Division-Plagiats strafbar machte. Trotz oder gerade deswegen hat das New Yorker Quartett mit Abstand am meisten Erfolg in einem Genre, das weder Post noch Punk sein will. Drei Alben später muss sich Interpol bereits über eigene Nachahmer ärgern.

Which song do you listen to when...
you wake up?

Charles Mingus - Mingus Ah Um. Recorded in 1959. It’s sophisticated and smooth at the same time. I don’t need anything too heavy in the morning time.

you drive a car late at night?
Frank Black - The Adventure and the Resolution. From an album called «The Cult Of Ray». It’s a fucking bad ass tune. It has that sort of Theme from Knight Rider feel to it. It’s mysterious, dark and repulsive. Perfect for driving.

you sit in the subway?
Trans Am - Future World

you cook?
Chet Baker - But Not For Me. I usually cook fish.

you make love?
Liars - Protection. The last song from their latest album. I don’t know exactly what he’s singing about, but that song is so fucking beautiful.

you sit in a plane?
J Dilla - Geek Down. From the fabolous «Donuts» album. You can call it hiphop but to me this is art.

you run naked through a cornfield?
An easy one. I do that most days. So: Mogwai - Christmas Steps.

you have to spend a night in a spooky
hotel?

That’s a tough one. Must be something creepy. And I really love creepy music. I’ll go with «Swisha» by Ratatat.

you go to a club?
Mike Jones - What Ya Know About

you come home from the club?
Blonde Redhead - 23

you are love sick?

Leonard Cohen - Famous Blue Raincoat

you want to disturb you neighbors?
I already had Trans Am. So let’s say «Take The Veil Cerpin Taxt» by The Mars Volta.

you pretend to be married?
Manu Chao - Je Ne t'aime Plus

you jump out of a plane with a parachute?
Goldfrapp - Lovely Head

you play ping pong?
Wow, that’s absolutely my favorite thing to do in the world! Playing ping pong! Perfect tune for it would be GZA’s «Liquird Sword».

you camp in the desert?
Janes Addiction - Three Days

you run from the cops?
M.O.P. - Handle Ur Bizness

you prepare for a real important date?
Jneiro Jarel - Big Bounce Theory. From the album «Three Piece Puzzle».

you feel like 1982?
Pffff.... Probaby something off Michael Jackson’s «Thriller». Okay, «Human Nature» is a fucking beautiful song! Outstanding!

you try to stay up for 24 hours?

Deltron 3030 - Deltron 3030 (LP)

you walk through a dark forest?
Hard one again. It must be something creepy again. Let me check my iPod... Palace Brothers - I Send My Love To You
