Out this week is the debut solo offering from Interpol frontman Paul Banks, going under the alias of Julian Plenti.

Album has already leaked I'm pretty sure and I think all the songs are on You Tube, but I'll probably go and buy this from a local when it's out in Melbourne. Heard some snippets on Amazon and I'm liking what I'm hearing. Something different from Interpol, sounding a little more acoustically driven and from what I've heard, Banksy's voice sounds consistently fragile ("daisy in my lazy eye" - Rest My Chemistry)...rather than the hammering, snappy, almost nasally vocal he uses a lot with Interpol (All Fired Up, Heinrich Manoever, C'Mere)

Didn't see this album coming, could be a cracker.
 
Solid album after 3 listens, a grower as well.

BONO gets a "thank you" in the liner notes for some reason! :up:
