The first time I heard about the Interpol band https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpol_ I said to myself, what is it about one music band again? For many years, I paid no attention to them at all. However, when I first listened to their song Obstacle 1:

I was really pleasantly surprised. I listened to their other songs and their albums so far. The conclusion was, great music band and superb music. But I prefer to listen to their NYC song:

I really like this part of the text:

I had seven faces,

thought I knew which one to wear.

But I'm sick of spending these lonely nights,

training myself not to care.

That's why I chose it today for my song of the day. I really like their unique style of music, especially the guitar sounds, the drums are great as well as the bass guitar. The members of the music group are:

Paul Banks https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Banks_(American_musician) - lead vocals, rhythm guitar (1997 – present), bass guitar (2014 – present)

The best album for my personal taste is their superb, still Turn On the Bright Lights (2002). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turn_On_the_Bright_Lights
