Our Love To Admire by Interpol Hope to get an audio or video album by them. Absolutely awesome song! Just love Interpol! Comes in a nice black book-like cover with one pocket for the CD and another pocket which holds a wall poster just like the picture of this special deluxe package CD. Highly recommend this album!.
Great CD and good videos.
Excellent buy. Excellent album. The first review says it all. If you love Interpol and you can, you should BUY this version. The bonus CD with live shows is great.
Still waiting for a DVD with a full live show. But this is a "must have" for all FANS of this amazing band.

4.5 Stars... Excellent bonus materials are worth checking out
) in the summer of 2007, and has been touring pretty much non-stop since the release. Interpol released its eagerly anticipated third album (and major label debut) "Our Love to Admire" (11 songs, 47 min. "Our Love to Admire" is ageing quite nicely, and I have kept it in my CD carousel pretty much since it came out. Our Love to Admire falls somewhere in between the darker mood of Turn on the Bright Lights" and the lighter, catchier tone of Antics, and for me the more ambitious tracks such as opener Pioneer to the Falls, Mammoth, All Fired Up (even with that riff straight from Radiohead's I Might Be Wrong), and best of all, Rest My Chemistry, truly the stand-out track on here. The 2 singles The Heinrich Manoever and No I In Threesome are nice enough. There are nevertheless a couple of tracks that don't seem to go anywhere, and falter.
The bonus CD (6 tracks, 32 min. ) brings us the first official live tracks from Interpol, recorded at the London Astoria in October, 2007. There are 4 tracks from the new album, namely Pioneer to the Falls, The Heinrich Manoever, Mammoth, and Rest My Chemistry, and 2 tracks from TOTBL, namely Obstacle 1, and Stella Was a Diver ans She Was Always Down. The band sounds very tight, and this is an excellent excerpt of that London Astoria show. One only wishes that there was more of it on here. The bonus materials are rounded out with the videos for the first 2 singles (Heinrich Manoever, and No I In Threesome).
In all, this deluxe version of Our Love to Admire is a very nice combo, and highly recommended. I saw Interpol here in Cincinnati 4 months ago on the Our Love to Admire tour, and that was simply an excellent show, and the live recordings found on this deluxe version only confirm the stellar reputation of Interpol.
Epic Potential
Most people will either love this or hate this. Having been a fan of Interpol since 2002 this album is a major departure aesthetically speaking from their first two. I loved it on first listen and still love it after consecutive plays. Everything about it is sonically gorgeous. From the sweeping "Pioneer To The Falls" to the bittersweetness of "The Lighthouse", the album is epic.
It may not be a huge step away from their sound but then this is only the 3rd album. Give them time because the potential is there. They've showed us that with this one.

great disc, bad service
i will never use amazon again. i preordered this cd a month before the release and i have to wait almost a month AFTER the release for amazon to ship it.
