Paul Banks - Banks

Review by Jon Clark

Paul Banks was the creative force behind Interpol it seems, and with a solo record as good as this one it seems he no longer needs his old bandmates»

Buy now from:

matador release the second solo album from interpol vocalist / guitarist paul banks. with 'banks', paul ditches the julian plenti alter-ego, and the resulting 10-song album is a tour-de- force of exhilarating minor-key intensity. 'banks' was recorded in new york and connecticut with producer peter katis (interpol, the national, shearwater, jonsi). the album is personal and epic, catchy and serpentine - much like your favourite interpol albums - with paul's wry humour, bare emotion, and varied influences all in full effect.
