#03 - New York Doesn’t Care (Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights)

for the third episode we finally get to the NYC post-punk revival scene of the 00's, covered in the book Meet Me In The Bathroom, via its earliest critical success - Interpol's debut album "Turn On The Bright Lights" from 2002. we talk about the history of the band and then dive in - and have some disagreements! is the album still a classic, or was Pitchfork right to retroactively downgrade their initial high praise of the album 20 years later in their recent "rescored" article? are the lyrics as bad as everyone says? why does Liz hate 00's post-punk revival so much? you'll have to listen to find out.
