For our last Sound and Vision of the year, we’re turning the spotlight on a hugely impactful album from the early 2000s, Interpol’s studio debut “Turn On The Bright Lights.” Despite drumming up a bit of attention in the early 2000s, the NYC-based band was largely unknown when they released “Turn On The Bright Lights” in 2002. Their stark, nearly gothic appearance, dressed in suits with chic haircuts, was a huge departure from the snazzy rock-and-rollers with whom they often share mention.
The music was unique for its time in the same way. Instead of the classic, high-energy sound of many others in New York’s “post-punk revival” era, their sound was dark, moody, and melancholic. When the band’s manager approached Sean McCabe to create something for the album’s cover, the designer and photographer offered a photo from his existing collection. The red and black image captured the dark and solitary themes of the album, as well as Interpol’s signature contribution to a confusing period of the post-9/11 American cultural landscape. McCabe would go on to design the cover of their next album “Antics,” and work with many other bands throughout the 2000s.
