Interpol Intro Live Performance at Brownies NYC in 2000

Venue: Brownies Location: New York, New York, United States Date: September 23, 2000

On September 23, 2000, Interpol performed at Brownies in New York, delivering an electric intro that set the stage for their atmospheric sound. This performance came shortly after the release of their debut album, "Turn on the Bright Lights," which had hit the airwaves just weeks earlier. The album was a critical darling, showcasing their post-punk revival style and deep, echoing vocals that would quickly earn them a devoted fan base. Fun fact: during this period, they were still fine-tuning their live presence, often experimenting with setlists and arrangements, seeking that perfect balance between raw energy and melancholic introspection. This show captured Interpol in their early days, teetering on the brink of fame and establishing themselves as a significant force in the indie rock scene.
