Interpol follow up there antics album with our love to admire and it is every bit as cool as its predercessor.
The album kicks of with the haunting melodic sounds of "pioneer to the falls" with a looping drum beat. this swiftly followed by a song about the dark thoughts of man to try and get his woman into a threesome with oppropriately named "no i in threesome". The middle section of the album as somemore tempo with single releases of "Heinrich Maneuver" with some riping jerky riffs on guitar and "mammoth" with its looping beat and rythm.
Interpols trademark huanting soungs and vocals remain consistant throught the album no more so in than in the penultimate track "the lighthouse". The whole sounds just bring alive the thoughts of loney lighthouse in the fog on a grey evening. There is the slight sense they run out of original ideas towards the back but this is still a great album. This album was one of the ones i listened to the most last year ones it has you in its grip there is no letting go.

Advantages: The powerful, heartfelt sounds of 'Rest My Chemistry' and 'Mammouth' Disadvantages: 'Heinrich Maneuver' fails to successfully represent the masterpiece that is 'Our Love To Admire'
