Barricade video sneak preview

Just a reminder that you can get a sneak preview (article & photos) of the Barricade video at Anthem Magazine.

More details on promotional appearances

Fogsnob (Adam at Matadaor Records) has posted an update in the Interpol forum, detailing some more of the promotional events that will be happening in the coming weeks:

"Couple band members will be in Seattle doing some radio stuff and will be doing a signing on Saturday - weekend before release. See flyer.

Tuesday the 7th, we are doing an outdoor show in LA. we're announcing all the details next Tuesday.

Still more to come....including a secret show later that week, somewhere!

Video for Barricade premieres tomorrow on VEVO/YouTube."

N.O.I.S.E. interviews Daniel

N.O.I.S.E. Video Mag will be posting an interview with Daniel. Until then, here's a preview.
Update: The full interview will be posted tomorrow, but here's another preview clip.
Update 2: The interview is up now.

Interpol on Theft of the Dial

"It was our pleasure to welcome Interpol to the Current studios to take over our airwaves for a Theft of the Dial session. I was joined by guitarist Daniel Kessler and drummer Sam Fogarino, who each brought in a few songs and explained them -- their history, their production, or just what makes them good. Vocalist Paul Banks wasn't able to come in (per the band, he was at the hotel sleeping) but he nonetheless made a surprising appearance at one point... Daniel & Sam were great guys, and I get the feeling that if we'd let them, they could have gone on much longer -- as they asked me at one point, "Are you SURE we can only do six songs?" (Thanks Gehain)

Interpol add Oct. 19th show in Pomona, CA

From Downtown Lobby: "Interpol sold out The Greek Theatre within minutes, but don’t worry if you weren’t able to grab some tickets for that show. A second date has been added at The Fox Theater in Pomona on Tuesday, October 19th. A better setting as this venue is much smaller and will give you a great view of the band no matter where you are. Don’t sleep on these tickets when they go on sale this Friday, August 27th at 10am through Ticketmaster."

Caen canceled, Seville delayed

A couple of changes for the upcoming European dates. First, the Sept. 16th show in Caen, France has been removed from the Shows page, and Le Cargo says it is canceled due to the band having "important promotional commitments in England."

Second, U2 has pushed the Sept. 29th show in Seville, Spain back a day to Sept 30th, due to a strike planned for the 29th.

Interpol bonus tracks

We already knew that the iTunes version of 'Interpol' would include a bonus track entitled 'Crimewaves', and now it looks like 'Gavilan' will be the bonus track on the Japanese version. (Thanks @jinxxxx)
