Interpol

At the time of the Virgin Festival in 2007, Interpol was riding high on the release of their critically acclaimed album, 'Our Love to Admire,' which had come out just two months prior in July. This marked a significant moment for the band as they were transitioning into a more expansive sound, while still holding onto their signature post-punk revival vibes that fans adored. When they took the stage at Toronto Island Park, the energy was palpable, and tracks like 'Pioneer to the Falls' and 'Slow Hands' showcased their ability to weave moody, atmospheric soundscapes with catchy hooks. Interestingly, this performance happened during a time when the music scene was buzzing with indie revivalism, and Interpol stood out with their unique blend of melancholic lyrics and driving melodies, making it a memorable live recording that fans still cherish.
