Muzz is a three-piece indie supergroup made up of Interpol’s Paul Banks, Josh Kaufman of Bonny Light Horseman and Matt Barrick of The Walkmen. In early June they released their debut record, Muzz, an album in the making since 2015. So, was it worth the wait? For the most part, yes.

Post-Punk Revival Revival?
What does post-punk revival revival mean? Did post-punk fade away? Why is it even important? Was that a typo? These are all questions you might have asked yourself when you read the headline. What do I mean by post-punk revival revival? Let me explain. We all remember the heyday of the early 2000’s when post-punk/alt-rockContinue reading “Post-Punk Revival Revival?”
Interpol-Fine Mess
Interpol recently released a new single titled “Fine Mess” to kick off the start of their North American tour. “Fine Mess” is as good as anything off their most recent record Marauder, and it’s good to see that they guys are maintaining their return to form. Check out the single below.
Interpol Under the Bright Lights of The Olympia
Interpol are my favourite band of all-time so I’m always cautious when I write about them. I’ve no need to worry about being biased here though because I’m sure everyone who was in the Olympia on Monday night would agree that this show was brilliant. Venue The Olympia.

I actually prefer this one to their second effort as it was a little more dark and and also slightlyContinue reading “Editors-The Back Room”
Interpol: Turn On The Bright Lights
Before I get into the review, I have to say that this is my favourite album of all time, but I won’t let that dictate my review. Released in 2002, the album didn’t exactly blow up. It was more successful in the UK than the United States, though it did well on the Independent Charts.Continue reading “Interpol: Turn On The Bright Lights”
