Interpol Live Performance of Obstacle 1 and PDA on Jimmy Kimmel Live

Venue: Jimmy Kimmel Live Location: Los Angeles, California, United States Date: July 23, 2003

In July 2003, Interpol delivered a stunning performance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" featuring their iconic tracks "Obstacle 1" and "PDA." At this point in their career, they had just released their critically acclaimed album "Turn on the Bright Lights" the previous year, which established them as prominent figures in the post-punk revival scene. The raw energy of their live set was electric, showcasing their tight musicality and Paul Banks’ haunting vocals, which struck a chord with both fans and newcomers. Notably, this performance came at a pivotal time when the band was gaining momentum, setting the stage for their subsequent success. Interestingly, "Turn on the Bright Lights" went on to define the early 2000s indie-rock sound and laid a solid foundation for Interpol's evolving artistry in the years to come.
