About Interpol

Interpol are an American post-punk revival band formed in New York in 1997. Led by Paul Banks’ baritone voice and Daniel Kessler’s precise guitar lines, they helped define the early-2000s New York indie-rock wave with Turn On the Bright Lights and Antics, then continued to refine their shadowy, architectural sound across later albums including The Other Side of Make-Believe.
