Turn on the Bright Lights — 2002
Interpol
Released 2002Alternative & Indie
Start here
A sleek, melancholic debut reviving post-punk for the 2000s, all taut guitars and shadow. Atmospheric and assured. A defining record of its scene. The record that introduced Interpol to serious listeners.
On vinyl: 2000s vinyl is increasingly rare second-hand — a repress is usually the easiest route.
