If you thought Interpol's major-label debut would be a radical departure from their past two efforts, think again. First single 'The Heinrich Maneuver' finds the band sticking to its tried-and-true formula. In the song's first lines, frontman Paul Banks alludes to a bicoastal breakup, asking his former paramour, "How are things on the West Coast?"'Our Love to Admire,' the band's third album, is due on July 10.

I really like this song and don't even like this band. HELP!?!

As the biggest Interpol fan I know, I feel compelled to share my thoughts on 'The Heinrich Maneuver,' a song I really thought might be inspired by the Chicago Bulls guard Kirk Heinrich ... until I realized that his last name is Hinrich. Hey, Paul Banks is sort of fratty, leave me alone.
I think the song is great and consider myself lucky that I honestly don't mind the sometimes moronically Banksian lyrics that infect roughly 67.3% of their songs. Does he really sing "You wear those shoes like a DOVE" at the beginning of this song? Who am I kidding? I love it.

I love Interpol. I think thier music and lyrics are so unique and interesting. They bring a great mood to me when I listen to them. They are soothing and at the same time a bit of rock and roll!!!

Saw them perform this song at the Coachella music festival this weekend. It was great! It was exciting to hear new stuff...can't wait for the album. Will be seeing them in May in LA for the KROQ weenie roast festival. I am lucky!
