The dust that makes the mud...
I've continued to have The Killers and Elefant high on the daily rotation. I am surprised that I have been listening to both of these albums so much. In analyzing them I don't see that they are technically outstanding albums. There is just something about the feeling and these albums that keeps luring me back in. I don't know whether its the somewhat Ian Curtis, Ian McCollough, Paul Banks sounding vocals or what. I think it might be my eager anticipation of a new Interpol album and this is the closest I can get until September. I don't think either of these records are near as good as Turn on the Bright Lights but I continue to keep listening with high frequency. I can see both of these bands breaking into the mainstream with several of these tracks. There is also something reminiscent of The Strokes with the simplicity of the song structure and lyrical content. Anyway, both albums are definitely worth picking up if you want some infectious post punk music.
