    It's been quite a while since Interpol have toured Ireland, 3 dates in the Olympia next month to look forward to. Anyway thought I'd start a top 5 list to get into the mood for it, will imagine varying responses due to so many good songs. Here's mine:
    1. Narc - Antics
    2. PDA. - TOTBL
    3. Specialist - Demo
    4. Public Pervert - Antics
    5. Lights - S/T

    Tough to pick an order definitely.

    1. Take You On A Cruise - Antics
    2. Leif Erikson - TOTBL
    3. Song Seven - B-Side on 'Evil' CD single
    4. Pace Is The Trick - OLTA
    5. Success - S/T

    1. Specialist - Demo

    It's a proper recording and just edged off of TOTBL and became a B-side, not a demo. It's possibly my favourite tune of theirs.

    I find it hard to pick top 5 but right now it feels like;
    Specialist
    Obstacle 1
    Success
    Stella
    Evil

    Savage tune :-) Should really be on the setlist.

    I wish they really started gigs with Untitled, it would be the unreal intro we all want.

    'Untitled' is the supreme opener alright, but as much as we certainly won't see it, 'Success' is a fantastic opener too. Saw them when they opened with it in London few years ago and those opening few chords are dark and spine tingling, along with a wall of sound to finish.

    Saw them play The Village, I think, many years ago - Franz Ferdinand were the relatively unknown support - and they opened with 'Untitled'.

    Very difficult to pick just 5, I'll go with these for now:

    1. Untitled
    2. The Heinrich Maneuver
    3. Obstacle 1
    4. Leif Erikson
    5. Try It On

    (If I was to complete a top ten, it would possibly be rounded out by: NYC, All the Rage Back Home, NARC, All Fired Up and Wrecking Ball)

    Jealous that ye got to see them in Ireland this year. Had tickets for their Toronto gig but they got stuck in a snowstorm! Rescheduled show isn't until July.

    1. Evil
    2. Obstacle 1
    3. The Heinrich Maneuver
    4. PDA
    5. Pioneer To The Falls

    Could have had another 10-15 easily make that list, shows how strong they are as a band.
