Men opløftende East Coast-nyt: ‘The Heinrich Maneuver’, singlen der forløber Interpol’s 3. album Our Love To Admire, er på iTunes nu. Mens vi indspillede Vejen Hjem Fra Rocknroll nede i Kreuzberg, Berlin var Antics, deres forrige, et vigtigt referencepunkt. Både dens lyd og spil viste os nye steder at gå hen. Synes ikke Antics fik helt den opmærksomhed og det beundrende publikum den fortjente, før pladen hurtigt kunne tages for næsten ingenting i enhver record swap. ‘The Heinrich Maneuver’ – der i tonalitet og akkordsammensætning ligger tæt på ‘Slow Hands’, første single fra netop Antics – er mere genhør end egentlig ny fødsel. Staccato-vers og -broer mod det løftende chorus, der ikke straks vil afsløre sin hemmelighed. Så nej, ikke meget nyt der i forhold til hverken Turn On The Bright Lights eller Antics. Interpol lyder igen som Interpol lyder som Interpol fra New York City, MEN – det her er vigtigt! – med skarphed + sonisk guitar-overskud intakt. Skaber let forventninger, der vil gøre Our Love To Admire svær at vente på.

Hør Interpol give ‘The Heinrich Maneuver’ her.

THE HEINRICH MANEUVER

How are things on the West Coast?
I hear you movin’ real fine
You wear those shoes like a dove
Now strut those shoes
We’ll go roaming in the night
Well how are things on the West Coast?

You keep it movin’ to your soul’s delight
Now I’ve tried the brakes
I’ve tried but you know it’s a lonely ride
How are things on the West Coast?
Oh and move heaven behind those eyes…

Today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings

But I don’t want to take your heart
And I don’t want a piece of history
No I don’t want to read your thoughts anymore
My God…

‘Cause today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings

How are things on the West Coast?
Hear you movin’ real fine tonight
You wear those shoes, I decide
Oh strut those shoes,
We’ll go roaming in the night
Well how are things on the West Coast?

Yeah, but you’re an actress I don’t identify

Today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings

Say it…
But I don’t want to play the part
And I don’t want a taste of victory
No I don’t want to read your thoughts anymore
My God…

‘Cause today my heart swings
Yeah today my heart swings

Say it…
‘Cause today my heart swings
Yeah, today my heart swings

Let it come…
‘Cause I’ve got a chance for a sweet saint life
I said I’ve got a dance and you’ll do just fine
Well I’ve got a plan, look forward in my eyes

Let it come…
Well I’ve got a chance for a sweet saint life
I said I’ve got a dance, it moves into the night
Well I’ve got a plan, look forward in my eyes

Well today my heart swings…
