This will be my second time seeing Interpol since they last came to Festival Pier in Penn's Landing back for the El Pintor album tour. They had so much energy and all the songs you really felt the emotion behind Paul Banks lyrics, so it was awesome to hear live. The opening acts were my first time seeing perform live though. Matthew Dear was decent and Tycho was a really trippy experience with the visuals and the sounds of his many different beats/tracks. The only issue I had and some attendees as well were the constant flickering of Interpol's light show. I got a headache, so at times I had to look away or just keep my head down due to it. If you're susceptible to seizures then I would cover your eyes since it happened roughly every other song. Other then that I highly recommend seeing them live if you get the chance. It just doest hit the same when you listen to their music on streaming services.

Great performance. High energy! Interpol crushed it with great stage light show and awesome selection. spanning: turn on the bright lights, antics, and yours to adore, as well as a lot of new songs. Closed with slow hands. Tycho was mesmerizing played his hits. a walk, awake a lot of cool guitar backed tracks from Dive. video projection was absolutely bananas.

I didn't love the lighting at times as it shaded the musicians and made it impossible to view, assess, or appreciate their musicianship. Loyal fans didn't seem to mind but for me as a first timer seeing them it hindered the overall experience.
