Truth be told, the last Interpol album was not that great. True there were a few good songs, The Heinrich Maneuver (see below) and All Fired Up , but the album as a whole was awful. And what was with all of the images from the museum of natural history? The reason I have recalled this is that Interpol lead singer Paul Banks has released a side project while Interpol readies its 4th album. Julian Plenti is...Skyscraper is the name of the band, and the first song that I [...]
Frank Yang I haven't done any sort of formal review of Yeah Yeah Yeahs' latest album It's Blitz! , mainly because I think it'd be redundant. Not just because it's already gotten largely universal praise , but because it should be evident to anyone listening to it that's it's a wholly splendid record, and to my ears, the band's best yet and one of the top of the year from anyone. Heady praise? Yes, but considering my head is pretty much consistently enveloped in a bubble of [...]
Paul Banks made his solo premiere on Jimmy Fallon last Friday night. I can't get use to him playing with a bunch of strangers not dressed in the most recent clothes you could find in an issue of GQ. The lot of them sounded great, but weird not seeing Carlos D. on Paul's side. Skyscraper is out via Matador and you can purchase it here . Games For Days [mp3] [...]
6.9/10 Para muchos, Interpol es la definición de la palabra cool . Impecablemente vestidos, con canciones precisas, meticulosas, calculadoras y difíciles de descifrar, este cuarteto se ganó desde su surgimiento en el 2001, un lugar importante en el mundo del rock actual. Sin embargo, este traje ajustado dejaba poco espacio para la experimentación, como ahora lo viene a demostrar Paul Banks , quien en este 2009 ha decidido revivir un viejo álter ego llamado Julian Plenti para sacar su primer disco como solista y mostrar que puede hacer canciones decentes sin [...]
July in Michigan was a bit weird; not the usual stifling heat and humidity we expect. But it's here now. And I'm not liking it too much. With that said, I have some catching up to do. Two albums were released this past Tuesday that I'm really liking, even though the reviews haven't been all that favorable. Modest Mouse released No One's First, And You're Next . It's more of an EP full of B-sides than an album, but more than enough to hold over this fan till the [...]
Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars Julian Plenti isn't really a new band, rather it's the sidecar for Interpol frontman Paul Banks. His latest release on Matador , Julian Plenti is...Skyscraper, attempts to re-up the ante for his career, and honestly, that of his band. After a brief departure into a more mainstream approach Banks is seen hear , expectedly, treading the ground he's walked upon for so long now. [...]

Julian Plenti is, in actuality, Interpol frontman Paul Banks. It's also a solid fact that his solo debut album, Julian Plenti Is...Skyscraper (released August 4), is very good indeed. Lead single from the album, Games For Days , is a pounding and driving romp through 4 minutes of furious fire. And now, the video for the track keeps in the same vein as the musical arrangement. How so? Banks enlists Metric frontwoman Emily Haines to star as his [...]

The cover is like the most depressing birthday party ever.
Julian Plenti is the euro-trashy sounding alter-ego of Interpol's Paul Banks. And I have to say his solo debut is a mixed bag of an album, though way better then Interpol's last blah album. ANYWAY I'm mega-exhausted from the weekend, but you can read my actual review, like with grown-up words up on Crawdaddy!.No Chance Survival - Julian Plenti

Games For Days-Julian Plenti
I am pleasantly surprised at how much I am enjoying the Julian Plenti album. After the last Interpol album, a major disappointment, I wasn't wildly excited at the prospect of a Paul Banks solo project. But, here is "Julian Plenti... Is Skyscraper" and I am enjoying it immensely. It is a great combination of Interpol sounding numbers and more quieter moments that suit the atmospheric voice of Banks. Now we have the first video. For "Games For Days". Starring the wonderful Emily Haines!! MP3: Fun That We Have - Julian [...]

Video Round-Up, 8.7.09
Welcome back to Video Round-Up, where the SD crew picks through the flurry of videos circulating this particular week and posts the highlights. This week, we remember two late greats: John Hughes (who passed away yesterday, 8.6.09 from a heart attack at the age of 59) and Heath Ledger (who directed a video for Modest Mouse before he passed away last year). After that, there's some live goodness from Alela Diane , Lykke Li featuring [...]

Vídeo: "Games for Days" - Julian Plenti
Definitivamente Paul Banks se está tomando esto de su otra personalidad muy en serio, pues bajo el nombre de Julian Plenti está haciendo cosas que normalmente no haría con su banda, como protagonizar uno de sus vídeos, en este caso el del tema "Games For Days" , perteneciente a su producción debut Julian Plenti Is...Skyscraper . La temática del vídeo se desarrolla en un hotel, con la doble personalidad de Paul haciendo su aparición, uno de ellos bien acompañado por Emily Haines de Metric y sus (según dicen los chicos) maravillosas [...]
