i’m a simple man, i see interpol and i click
Hope you liked the video and it was worth the click my friend 😁
I see a simple comment, and I upvote man.
the whole album is just perfect to me
There's a documentary partially about the development of this band and this album adjacent to The Strokes, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, LCD Soundsystem, Interpol, and a few others. Generally bands in the NYC local scene around this time. It's called "Meet Me in the Bathroom" and I'd highly recommend it for anyone that's a fan of this genre of sound.
Anyway in that documentary, it's mentioned that Interpol stayed in a cabin away from NYC for a while. They spent a majority of their savings to develop this record. I'd hypothesize that this main riff was just found through what "sounds good" and I'd speculate that many bands follow some degree of this sense and some theory but I'd explicitly consider that this riff specifically followed what sounded good to them at the time being that they'd have ample time to play and write but then again, theory could get you there too.
I'd also add that I can see that this video hasn't accrued many views and while that's sad, I'd also hypothesize that there is an audience for this kind of thing but your channel doesn't yet have the reach that it could through consistent uploads of this kind. Breaking down streams into smaller, more condensed vids is a sound strategy and one that I personally am hungry for. I'm certain that I'm not alone in this. I just also wonder how many people understand theory enough to garner any information from something a little more advanced. Perhaps a quick theory lesson could help? Idk either way I'm growing to be a big fan of yours so I fully support whatever you decide to do with this channel. Thanks for the cool video!
Looove that documentary! I'm reading through the book right now hehe!
I also very much appreciate your support! I look at channels like Adam Neely and Charles Cornell and know that there is a large audience out there for me, but the 4 l g0 is fickle, as always. All I can do is keep on going and not give up, and people like you help keep me motivated to do so, so thank you!
In regards to basic theory lessons, I have oft considered that and have put relevant theory bits in other vids. There is so much information out there on "intro" materials that the thought of adding another thing onto the pile is what frequently stops me from doing so, hmmm
My favorite song ❤❤
I hope I did it justice and was able to help you appreciate it even more!
same, its so good!!
I really enjoyed re-watching your livestreams as well as your breakdowns on The Adults are Talking and Obstacle 1! Keep up the great work, Matty!! 👏🙂👍
I'm so happy to hear that, thank you for the support my friend!
Great video and explanation! Obstacle 1 is probably my favorite song ever and I was very confused when I tried to learn it on guitar how the whole song strums its tonic chord almost during the entire song yet it still has tension and release
Haha yes exactly! It is quite fascinating! Check out the full livestream if you wanna see us get really deep into it!
Awesome!!!! I've been waiting for years for a video like this
got lots of stuff like this on my channel :)
More interpol!! Liking the new shorter more targeted format too.
will def be more interpol coming! if you cant wait you can check out the replays of the livestreams :)
I'm also happy you are enjoying the more straightforward format I've been playing with- it works better for me, too!
Love this my man! Love your streams, your shorts, and your vids. These bands are my bands. And you are the master of them. I have infinite respect in the world for you. Thank you for bringing these bands to some kind of public attention.
I appreciate your support so very much!! I am honored to be considered a scholar of this kindve music; I think the whole 00s garage/alt rock revival is long overdue for some serious analysis and discussion!
I do a livestream once a week, consider coming and hanging!
One of the best songs I've ever heard
its a good one
4:22 I was waiting for this from the second you mentioned whether it COULD be an inversion
great minds 😌
Matty you do a great job of showing the contrapuntal aspects of non classical music IE the VERTICAL and the horizontal points in the music. People hear counterpoint and instantly think of Bach and fugues but lots of music has aspects of counterpoint in it and you do a great job of showing that.
It's such an important aspect of the music and is sorely overlooked! Tysm for your thoughtful comments and continued support!
You should come hang in our livestreams! We do one every week 😄
When do you livestream?@@mattygregmusic
@@Poetslove alternating Mondays and Wednesdays at 7pm est
@@mattygregmusic A bit late for me over here in England mate but I really like it when you put clips up of livestreams as videos for people to watch whenever.
@@Poetslove alas c'est la vie! Perhaps I'll do some livestreams on the weekends at earlier times so i can hang with some of my friends across the Atlantic!
Love your content so much dude! What kind of guitar is that?
Thank you for your support! It's a Baum Backwing!
Love the breakdowns! Would you ever consider doing a video on Don't Fall by The Chameleons?
Thank you! I don't know the chameleons, should i check em out?
@@dustinvoid3922 nice, will def be checking that out, thank you!
In the meantime, if you can't wait, I do offer a tier on my patreon where I do a short on a song of your choosing!
My god, that guitar is sexy as fuck
It's a Baum Backwing!
I’d say it’s more Fmaj to Fmaj7 6/5
love u for this, but not bringing up the bassline is a huge war crime!
@@CameronBlaylock we talked about the bassline a ton in the Livestream!
@@mattygregmusic ah, my bad... 🤣
