05.24.23 | we stan swb here except for that dreadful middle third
also i swear i don't have an arbitrary min/max of 11 songs for this, that's just the way its shaken out so far |
YoYoMancuso
05.24.23 | 11 was legit their worst song until the new album dropped |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.24.23 | impressive work overrepresenting the shit out of SWB and still somehow missing out its best track
1 shouldn't be here and the other tracks are p standard fare for these lists hmm. would probably keep 5 and 2 |

05.24.23 | "The National doing U2 better than U2 gotta love it"
yeah that's a big problem for me with their later career, doesn't work for me at all |
MoM
05.24.23 | There’s so much missing here i don’t know where to begin i feel like the rabbit from Alice in Wonderland |
AlexKzillion
05.24.23 | hahahaha knew this would be controversial but its a fun exercise forcing yourself to be honest and cutting out what you feel like are great but slightly less than top tier tracks
slow show was the hardest cut for me |
Icebloom
05.24.23 | Sleep Well Beast t/t best song on that album
not as high on the unlimited budget feel of High Violet [2]

Sunnyvale
05.24.23 | Pretty sweet list, don't necessarily agree with all of these but always interesting to see another person's in-depth thoughts on individual tracks |

05.24.23 | I'll Still Destroy You > anything on SWB |
cylinder
05.25.23 | Daaaamn this is solid. Props for including Day I Die, I love that tune. Such a great rock song. Only one I’d say is missing is Apartment Story |

05.25.23 | what's up with all these double posts lmao
show last night was great they spent over half the show playing deep cuts it felt like, stark contrast to when i saw them in september and they rattled off all the hits
also thought the frankenstein songs were quite a bit better with the live arrangements |
Pheromone
05.25.23 | where is city middle |
Sinternet
05.25.23 | misses about today, secret meeting, available, slipping husband, all the wine, goddamn this is not it |
AlexKzillion
05.25.23 | secret meeting and all the wine both just missed as well |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.25.23 | "secret meeting, available, slipping husband"
sint what is this madness this is not an interpol thread
I'll Still Destroy You > anything on SWB [3]
only big credit i will give this list is not being filtered by the final 3 mins of the SWB t/t. impeccable reinvention of the band's old-young-man-dozing-off energy and maybe the last truly creative moment in their discog |
