 I know for sure that even our big boys don’t like the little work, and who can ever recognize themselves in hypochondriac lyrics that are so spleen?

Interpol's self-titled 2010 album fails to inspire, lacking the brilliance and energy of previous works. While maintaining their signature sound, the songs feel repetitive and subdued. Some tracks show brief glimpses of energy and vocal variation, but overall the album is considered a letdown. The packaging receives mild praise, but the music itself leaves much to be desired. Discover why Interpol's 2010 album divided fans—listen and decide for yourself.

 Paul McCoy returns after years to using (albeit somewhat timid) scream parentheses.

 The group is far from the quality of the lively self-titled ‘12 Stones’ from 2002 and probably will never again present a style so close to ‘clean’ Nu Metal/Hard Rock as back then.

The 12 Stones' EP 'The Only Easy Day Was Yesterday' reflects a cautious return to their early rock roots following issues with their label. The EP features a blend of hard guitar-driven tracks and melodic elements, with standout songs like 'Welcome To The End' and 'We Are One.'

 "The film stretches over a nice 100 minutes of pure and simple fun without pretenses, amidst deadly encounters with demons created in post-production... and daring twist betrayals."
