I’ll never forget. It was October of 2002. My band and I had played a local gig and met a couple of Girls who invited us back to their place . We were hangin out and “Untitled “ came on her music playing. I was hooked right away and said “who is this?” She told me a band called Interpol from NYC. I bought the album the next day and listened to it over and over again. It completely changed the way my band and I wrote songs and gave us a new direction to explore. Of course, we never wrote anything close to the greatness of this album but it was certainly fun . This album brings me back to a time when I was 22. In college. Had a band. And anything seemed possible. Thank You gentlemen. Thank You.

I saw you guys on January 18, 2003 in Ithaca, NY at 18 yrs old and then again 20 years later at 39 yrs old in Beacon Theatre, New York, NY December 14, 2023. 50 years from now when I am dead, I will be resting in peace because of your music.

It’s so surreal that after being a fan of Interpol in high school, I’m around the same age as the band is in this documentary. I also moved to NYC last year, and the doc captures the same grittiness and magic that I feel now. It really inspires me to get out there and make some art because in 20 years it’ll mean something to someone.

This is one of the few albums I've listened to for over a decade that I haven't gotten sick of.

Turn on the bright lights was one of the most formative albums of my youth and I count myself lucky to have been alive for this sliver of time with it

Los vi en Lima, en el 2019, son una banda q en vivo es increíble, suenan como en los discos, respetan al público, interpretan hasta la última nota de la canción y el baterista se merece los aplausos de pie del público.

Best band of all time

Interpol as a whole inspired me to pick up and learn an instrument but Carlos is who inspired me to choose bass as my first instrument.

I remember the first time I heard/saw Interpol. They were opening for Finch, I believe. When they came on, I just wanted it to be fast so it would be over & I could see Finch. Until they started playing... Now, they are one of my favorite bands. Whenever I hear Interpol or see someone wearing merch, I get a strange feeling in my chest. It feels better thn falling in love♡

Legendary status right here..

Damn it, I miss Carlos. Well, if John Frusciante is playing again with the Red Hot, maybe there's hope for Carlos to come back lol

I can’t believe it’s been 20 years! Holy cow. Obstacle 1 remains my all time favorite song. Turn On The Bright Lights is one of my Top 5 records of all time. I hope young people are still discovering it.

This album is the biggest inspiration for me in making music. Thanks Interpol. Thank you Carlos for your great influence on me in writing basslines. Hope you read this.

I was in High School when this album came out and it blew my mind!! Then, I got to see them live for the first time at Weenie Roast 2005 when Antics came out. What a hell of a concert and time.

Favorite band ever and one of those most perfect records to ever exist. Thanks for sharing this documentary. Takes me back!

First saw them opening for the Cure during the Curiosa Tour. Interpol was my NYC soundtrack for many years. Love this band. And what an incredible debut. Single-handedly brought back post-punk.

first picked it up in 2005 and it has forever remained my favourite album. plenty of exceptional content since but TOTBL was something else.

I love you more than I've ever loved any other band. I'm obsessed ! I want moreeee

Still, one of my fav debut albums of all time and the main reason I picked up a bass 11 years ago. Hearing Untitled changed my life. Thank you TOTBL!

man I'm late to the Interpol world but glad I found them!! really great!!

Still a timeless masterpiece 21 years later 🙌🔥💚

Classic album!! Been listening to Interpol for over 20 years now! Wow still rocking too! Thanks guys for amazing songs

I love their style and how the songs are arranged. I know a lot of bands have touched or done this certain style but Interpol just has something in their sound that attracts me to it.

I love this band and this album is already a rock classic!

Damn, I got this record 20 years ago when I was 14... time flies, indeed. I really miss the Carlos era, but it is what it is. I still remember getting asleep listening to NYC or Stella was a diver and she was always down, such good times.

Potentially the greatest album of the century so far.

The greatest album ever made. More of this content please Interpol ❤️

For anyone wondering, the song at 12:10 is Precipitate, a demo song that is actually mi favorite song not only from Interpol, it's my all time favorite song

They were sooo young. Not many albums have aged as well as this one (Antics is right up there with it). I think I like Paul's voice better now :)

My favorite album... From head to tail, each song is great.

I was taking photos for a friend of his band in their little garage studio in 2002 when i was 17 and he showed me this new band he had come across and they quickly become a main stay of my MP3 player and phone for the next 20 years, trying to learn of few of the songs also helped me get into learning the guitar more, amazing band! keep it up!

Love you guys !! I play your music to my one month old baby .

Miss Carlos so much.

TOTBL It's part of history. An iconic album. Thank you for so many years, so many moments, so many memories.

I first heard interpol totbl when I was 13 or so. I was so excited for antics to release…as my taste, style and interests changed over the years I’ve always loved interpol. I listen to mostly r&b, hip hop and 70s soul/disco nowadays but interpol has consistently been my favorite for 20 years now! Its bittersweet to see the 4 of them nodding in agreement as they are being interviewed together- they were just babies! Carlos D is amazing and I was sad to see him go but I appreciate that Interpol continues to make amazing music to this day. Much love from Texas!

❤mi época más feliz ... Y después de todo sigo escuchandoles fielmente por todo lo que me hacen sentir y me han ayudado con su música .

When I heard obstacle 1 on TV back in, maybe 2003/2004…. I was like: WHAT THE HELL IS THIS MASTERPIECE! … My only loved band, and I’m 35 now. ❤.

Thanks for sharing this with us! Great to see some live clips.

I remember when MTV did "You Hear It First" on Interpol, back in the day. Carlos talked about people asking him if he was hot, wearing all black outside in the New York City heat. I went and got Turn On The Bright Lights. I remember I got Sing The Sorrow by AFI the same day. Both albums have awesome red and black covers. Good times.

Thanks for the soundtrack of my life Interpol🥲 🖤🖤🖤🖤

Thank you for this! What a great way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of such a legendary album.

Thank you! TOTBL will always have a special place in my heart. ❤

Tbh i was never really into music until nyc was playing in the background on mtv2 as i was studying. I remember being so blown away that i stopped studying and wouldn't turn the channel over until it came on again. I then went to HMV and bought my first ever album TOTBL and I waa dancing around my kitchen for the year. I remember feeling electric tingles when i first heard those lines "i will eat the salt off your frost faded lips" To me Interpol has always been more than a band, it was a movement, they have influenced my whole outlook on life. If I ever meet anyone who also happens to like Interpol I cant help but fall in love with them. Interpol are next level music. ❤❤❤

I am so grateful for the music they bring to this world, to my life. I knew the band's name but not their music since this year and I am obsessed and so f**** grateful to discover them. There is no time stamp for great music! Great tunes will live forever. Thankful, inspired, in love really. Hope to see and hear them on EU tour soon!
