Interpol - Slow Hands Live Performance at Astoria, London
Before Interpol took the stage at the iconic Astoria in London on November 30, 2006, they had just released their critically acclaimed album, "Antics," in 2004. This album, featuring hits like "Slow Hands," propelled them into the spotlight, solidifying their status in the post-punk revival scene. By the time of this live recording, they were riding high on the success of their previous work and had developed a loyal following. What's particularly interesting about this recording is the raw energy that pours out, capturing the band at a pivotal moment in their career, just before they began working on their next album, "Our Love to Admire," which would drop in 2007. Fans often share how this era showcases their signature sound, blending melancholic melodies with driving rhythms, and the performance at the Astoria is a perfect reflection of that passion and intensity.
