Interpol have been added to this year’s Open’Er Festival

Interpol have been added to this year’s Open’Er Festival and will appear at the event on July 3rd.

The band stayed busy with the release of their A Fine Mess EP last month, one which Live4ever said had a ‘vaguely oxymoronic title that suits it perfectly‘: “Given the format and timing, you might have expected this to be a diversionary exercise, but as the atmospheres build across the icy, unforgiving Real Life and The Weekend’s evident paranoia (‘Please say this whole adventure is dialling in/The deep state, it’s all self-interest, leave it there’), the weight of contrary evidence is enough to have obsessives saluting the credentials of a unique chapter.”

“These are, however, men of process. No Big Deal features a slight loosening of the tourniquet and flits ‘From the beach..to the strip club’ as a salute to Banks & co.’s grandest traditions; closer Thrones could’ve been plucked from almost any location in the post-Dengler canon.”
