Paul Banks continues to artistically distinguish himself from his more well-known identity as Interpol's frontman and surpasses his own works as Julian Plenti with his second solo album titled Banks.

Interpol front man Paul Banks is dropping his Julian Plenti alter-ego for his second solo outing on Matador . The album, simply titled Banks , comes out today. If lead single "The Base" is any indicator, Banks will use his baritone and cryptic lyrics to further explore the subtle complexity staked out on Interpol's 2010 self-titled release. However, that's not to say there's nothing new here; just wait for the massive bridge. Be sure to catch Mr. Banks when he comes to the Howard Theatre on November 9th. [...]

It's now been over ten years since Interpol first released their since grotesquely venerated début, Turn On The Bright Lights on the similarly estimable NYC independent, Matador. Ten years . The Essex-born Paul Banks was then but twenty-four. And although it may not be this dark, brooding, and faintly avant-garde ignition that appears to have fuelled this quasi-eponymous sophomore solo full-length, Banks , this record is not infrequently the sound of the man reliving elements of an increasingly distant youth. Musically, much here compiled borrows from his troupe's immediately accessible '04 Antics [...]

Era un mundo maravilloso, en el que la historia (o al menos el concepto lineal y progresivo de la historia) había desaparecido, en donde todo sucedía al mismo tiempo y los procesos cerebrales, inflamados de información y bombardeo imaginario, resolvían problemas otrora eternos en cuestión de minutos. Todo lo anterior hizo que la memoria de nuestros niños, de todos nuestros niños, se borrara como una malformación. Que su capacidad de análisis quedara reducido a un puñado de cenizas ligeras y pobres que se desvanecía con los minutos. Y los hubo algunos que de esto [...]

Photos by G. Paul Banks A dream of mine came true yesterday at the CMJ music marathon in New York as I had the opportunity to interview Interpol's lead singer Paul Banks for MTV's show "Weird Vibes."  (Air dates and links will be posted as soon as I know, so stay tuned to the site and tell all your friends).  Paul Banks is taking a brief break from Interpol and will be releasing a solo album called "Banks" on October 23, 2012.  Long time [...]

photo by Lauren Slusher Paul Banks has played music under a variety of names for some years, but it's only about fifteen years into his career that he started performing prominently under his own name. He's well known as the lead singer for Interpol, but when he released solo material in between his duties with the New York City-based band, he did it under the Julian Plenti moniker. Now touring behind the appropriately-titled Banks , Paul has eschewed Interpol's streetlight-lit guitar rock for a brighter sound that flirts with electronics, lush strings, [...]

Why are so many artists hiding their names behind an alias? Is it to create a certain distance to the music and the narration of their songs? To protect their own personal life and feelings from the stories in these tracks? Or maybe just because it sounds good? There are many explanations but when these
