Interpol

In May 2008, Interpol was riding high on the waves created by their recent album, 'Our Love to Admire,' which was released just a year prior. This album marked a significant moment in their career, showcasing a matured sound while still holding onto the brooding essence that fans loved. The live performance at the Heineken Open'er Festival in Gdynia, Poland, was electrifying, as the band delivered fan favorites like 'PDA' and 'Slow Hands.' Interestingly, this festival appearance helped cement their position as one of the leading bands in the post-punk revival scene. It was an opportunity for them to connect with a wider audience, and you could feel the energy in the air—classic Interpol, with poetic lyricism paired with hypnotic instrumentation. This performance was critical in the evolution of their live shows, building anticipation for their next studio album.
