Interpol - The Heinrich Maneuver
CATEGORY: Music Videos
I’m not sure I like what is going on in the new Interpol video for ‘the Heinrich Maneuver’- actually, I’m not sure what’s going on, period. There seems to be some cryptic, minimalist message hidden somewhere, perhaps even an allegory.
I really need to go back to school and take an art class.
As far as the song itself it is pretty much by-the-numbers Interpol. I listened to the first three songs off the band’s up coming Our Love to Admire on MTV’s the Leak and I wasn’t very impressed at all. Unless I get blindsided by a stellar second half, it looks like Turn on the Bright Lights will continue to hold the throne as Interpol’s best. Speaking of which, I haven’t been able to locate my copy of Bright Lights for the past few months and I don’t have the mp3 files on my computer. I do have the vinyl version but I am too lazy to hook up my record player right now. Sounds like I am in a pickle, doesn’t it.
That boring nugget was my attempt at getting more personal with all of you. How did it feel?
