In September 2002, Interpol graced the Troubadour in West Hollywood for a live performance captured by LAUNCH, during a pivotal moment in their career. Just a couple of months earlier, they had released their debut album, "Turn on the Bright Lights," to critical acclaim. This album set the tone for their sound— a blend of post-punk revival and moody, atmospheric melodies that would come to define their style.
