This Is Not A Democracy

I'm watching a Panorama documentary about the Troubles in Northern Ireland, and I'm kind of pissed off that they keep using Interpol's Our Love to Admire to soundtrack it.

That's one of my favourite albums, you guys! Don't ruin it for me.

Can I just say, that I really, really, really fucking love Interpol?

Their new video is just... Guh. I spent the vast majority of my 25th birthday listening to Our Love to Admire in the car with shiny_starlight and it was just such a brilliant day. I listen to that album on repeat for hours at work until I feel inclined to do something nihilistic like walk under a bus and I have to make myself stop.

Narc was my 'song' with Vee when we were dating. Hah. Yeah, I know, I should hate them. I first started obsessing on their music (oddly, never the band themselves) when they released Slow Hands, and it remains one of my favourite songs evereverever.

I pimped them to heyginger a while back, and I think you should all go and buy everything by them.

(And before anyone makes assumptions, I loved them before I even knew Troh existed, thank you, and I was listening to Morrissey and Joy Division when he was still in Junion High.


I need an icon, now.
