hate to be that person but he's the sort of guy who'd use big words to make himself sound smart during an argument and he'd "win" only because he's pissed you off that much
@@kassms1585 Yeah, I know the type lol The funny thing is, I believe he’s actually pretty smart; the guy he reminds me of is smart too. It just seems like (in general) with people who have those mannerisms or talk in that way, that they feel inadequate in some way, so it seems like they’re trying to compensate for something through their speech and the way they present themselves.
I think it's funny how Daniel is always credited with putting the band together and being the first to propose ideas for songs but he's the least covered guy in the group. I've pretty much never seen him talk ever... wonder if that's intentional.
This Carlos guy created some amazing bass work for them. My favorite stuff of theirs was when he was their bassist. Interpol is not the same without him... So unfortunate he did not remain.
Did you hear the album “Interpol”? He played bass for that album and it was not their best. However, El Pintor was really good and that was without him! TOTBL is an undisputed masterpiece. I agree with that, but I’m just saying things weren’t the same before he left.
@@elizabethbarajas8614 I think that last album with Carlos wasn't great because Carlos didn't have his heart in it at that point which caused the entire thing to just be a weird process for them to make the album. The first album without him was good because I believe they thought they had to work extremely hard to give us what we've come to expect from the original members. Interpol will always be great as long as Daniel and Paul continue working together. Hopefully one day we'll see Carlos make music with the band again and/or play some shows! And as far as Turn On The Bright Lights... I'd do anything to go back in time and listen to that album for the first time again.
@@elizabethbarajas8614yes, of course I heard "Interpol" 😐 and by that you meant Antics, I assume. I disagree, to me the base work on Antics is better than El Pintor or any other Carlos didn't work on, in my opinion, therefore my comment. Oh well.
@@julenreus5777 I think by Interpol they meant Interpol, but it sounds like he was on his way out at that point. That was 2 records after Antics if I'm not mistaken.
Its me again. wow, man ten long years. i made that comment when i first started out on youtube. nowadays i have a new account. but ive kept this one from that early era in my life. sorry if i didnt comment right away. drama delayed me. but yeah man, interpol has been my favorite band since my Rock Band 2 days. cant believe carlos quit, he was such a good bass player. but he's happy now & im all for it. paul, sam & dan still going strong after 20 years! and heres to all of you who have waited patiently for the promise i kept a decade ago, thank all you gorgeous people! heres to another 10! 😂😜😝🎉🎊🎈🎉🎋🎆🎇🎁🎂
Jajaj si lo mismo pense😅. Y el contraste de personalidades y aura que emanan: Daniel tan arrogante, egocentrico extrovertido y cón ese aire de "soy muy interesante y cool" que lo es jajaa pero no deja de ser pretencioso y Paul lo contrario; tranquilo, relajado, bien articulado, siempre atento y educado jajajaj y como en las entrevistas de ellos juntos en esos años Paul casi suplicandole con la mirada a daniel "no vayas a decir una barbaridad de divo o extravagante" 😂
@TheSicDominator I believe you are referring to a 2003 interview with Carlos in which the writer stated Carlos did not write his basslines which was incorrect. In recent interviews promoting S/T, Daniel acknowledged how important Carlos was to Pol's songwriting process and even going as far as noting Carlos wrote all of his own basslines and keyboard arrangements for the band. Even Dave Pajo commented the way Carlos wrote his basslines was "genius".
Possibly. If that is the case then he's a very talented actor also. When they played live in the early years he's so energetic and charismatic on stage. Maybe constant touring just sucked the life out of him, it can easily happen in this line of work.
Well it's said he didn't like the bass too much, he plays the bass like a guitar if you haven't seen xD. He just was too into the role as a bass player.
So Carlos just told me he's the reason I like this band so much, and Paul banks just told me that he was really lame when he was 14... Carlos come back
The good years before Interpol became a bit more scatterbrained amongst the members and before the overwhelming sense of pretentious behavior ran amok... Turn on the Bright Lights will forever remain a top 3 album of all time for me but I can't say I really get the same sense of enjoyment out of anything past Antics (save for maybe a couple songs off of Our Love to Admire). I don't get why some people were debating who's the most talented member and whatnot considering instrumentally, other than Carlos, none of them really showcase any extraordinary playing (Paul in an interview even admits that he's not a very good guitarist)... I don't mean that in a negative way but the band's strongest attribute was always their compositions and the way they layer sounds over one another, not their technically abilities with their instruments.
you're so far off. Sam is definitely just as good as of a musician, in fact all four are very good that their respective instruments. El Pintor and now Marauder fill out my top 3 Interpol albums. TOTBL is 1, the other two are 2A and 2B for me. Also, song composition which you give them credit for, is a huge part of being a good musician.
i heard that they didn't form as simply as they just put it. apparently Carlos only joined so Daniel would leave him alone, and Paul initially said no too.
i think interpol won't be the same without Carlos and if this band is going to change that much as it was released with the last album, they just have to start a new project as a new band. i dont know its just what i feel ... anyway it was worth it as this worked
@MsStellaBrightside i like the last album its just that i think interpol wont sound like a post-punk band, and then it wont sound like interpol we knew. by the way antics is my favorite album =)
@tmf1977 I knew he brought in keyboards to the band. He did write all of Evil though, and without Daniel there they wouldn't even exist, he was the mutual friend between almost all of them. Won't deny that lots of the time the bass is the highlight, i.e Length of Love. Bringing different parts to the band doesn't make him "less" talented. Its a 100% team effort, there is no 1 man band dynamic like lots of groups. Obviously Dave would applaud the man who gave him a well paid day job in temping.
@Zeppelinfan25 I'm a huge fan of this band and I do agree with you that Daniel is responsible for creating Interpol. However I stand by my comment about Daniel. He is not a great musician. Paul carries the weight when it comes to performing and whether people dislike Carlos (or not) Carlos was key to Interpol's sound. There is a HUGE difference between Pol's live performances on this tour in comparison to Interpol's shows during 2000-early 2007 before Carlos became disenchanted.
@Zeppelinfan25 Regardless if Daniel starts the song writing process, Daniel himself admitted that Carlos was responsible in working closely with him in the early song writing process and played a major role in song writing process. Regardless of what was then, I would bet my last dollar that the next Interpol record will be complete shit without Carlos. This recent record is weak and rumor has it Carlos and Dan had a falling out during recording S/T.
@childrenoftherez There were other factors involved with Carlos quitting Interpol. I don't buy Carlos resenting playing the bass as Sam claims was the reason Carlos left. Whatever the case is, Carlos left a huge void in this band and I would not be suprised if Interpol does not put out another record. Just my two cents...
if carlos didnt want to play bass to begin with, why did he join the band in the first place? maybe he wanted to have some cash in his pocket? it's weird that people like a bass player who never wanted to play bass. at least he made some kick ass bass beats for all of their songs.
Just wondering where Carlos is now. Looks like a guy with more ambition than ability. 6 years should tell. Paul was Interpol. And his music got even better after he got out of interpol jail.
Known fact that Daniel is the least talented member, however Daniel knew who to tap on and form things working for indie labels before forming Interpol.

Carlos seems like the type of person you wouldn't want to argue with.
hate to be that person but he's the sort of guy who'd use big words to make himself sound smart during an argument and he'd "win" only because he's pissed you off that much
that or he'll suck your blood
@@someadandlogochannel dead on. nothing against the guy, but he sounds so pretentious and I always get irritated listening to him lol
@@kassms1585 he got ben shapiro vibes
@@kassms1585 Yeah, I know the type lol
The funny thing is, I believe he’s actually pretty smart; the guy he reminds me of is smart too.
It just seems like (in general) with people who have those mannerisms or talk in that way, that they feel inadequate in some way, so it seems like they’re trying to compensate for something through their speech and the way they present themselves.
If Carlos made a comeback as a game show host I wouldn't be mad.
I think it's funny how Daniel is always credited with putting the band together and being the first to propose ideas for songs but he's the least covered guy in the group. I've pretty much never seen him talk ever... wonder if that's intentional.
Vanessa Garcia he's pretty shy I'm lead to believe, it may be out of choice
You can tell from performances that Paul Banks is pretty shy. He never seems to seek out the spotlight. Carlos obviously doesn't mind the spotlight.
Using one of their best songs in the background makes this interview even better.
Can’t lie, Carlos is a big reason why I work on my bass. Crazy that such a killer bassist never actually owned one in his life!
Carlos is genius, but here he really looks like Dracula
You say it like its a bad thing.
Sucked the life outta himself
he's pretty conceited :/
@@someadandlogochannel he definitely gives that impression
@@chickentikka7890 i know of people who met him, they say he's an asshole and let the fame get to his head
if youtube is around for another 10 years, im going comment on this video again
6 more to go. I'm holding you to it
Ayyyy
..
do it .
4 years left
Looking at Paul's face makes all my troubles go away... at least for a good 5 minutes
Same ❤
does it still do (woah im aslo the 69th like)

Carlos D singlehandedly got me into indie rock. A total legend. Should have went solo
Carlos looks like Crispin Glover, sort of has a Charlie's Angels' 'Thin Man' thing going on.
yep
Isabella Roman i thougt i was the only one who thought that 😄
Is it just me or does Carlos D remind anybody else of Bill Hader as Stefon from SNL?
Ted Cruz
+John B haha
Hahhah
Ted Cruz. Bassist for Interpol 😂
“We’re not the kind of band that’s all slop when they perform live”

Where is the dave pajo comment located? Big papa m fan/slint
Carlos estaba bien papi en esos tiempos que estaba alla en Interpol, quisiera tomarme una foto con el...
You can really see Carlos's happiness throughout the early Interpol days. What happened?
Maybe he was just better at hiding his bitterness.
Possibly. If that is the case then he's a very talented actor also. When they played live in the early years he's so energetic and charismatic on stage. Maybe constant touring just sucked the life out of him, it can easily happen in this line of work.
Yeah, I've also read that the bass was never his preferred instrument.
Well it's said he didn't like the bass too much, he plays the bass like a guitar if you haven't seen xD. He just was too into the role as a bass player.
Yeah I suppose so. It's a shame he was an awesome bassist.
So Carlos just told me he's the reason I like this band so much, and Paul banks just told me that he was really lame when he was 14... Carlos come back
***** like or not Carlos did put a lot into the early stages of the band so he's not a fanboy he's just a fan of one great bassist
Well to be fair everyone is pretty lame when they're 14. Hard to find cool 14 year olds.
Carlos D looks like Bela Lugosi's grand-grand-son
Carlos is so fuckin classy, I just can't handle it
carlos is so weird, and idk i have a bad feel about this guy; but what a great bass lines he did!
viktr estebn he seems smart as fuck.
Carlos is brilliant.
Maybe Carlos left to become a gameshow host then.
0:39 Now I know what inspires Paul to write his lyrics
🤣
Carlos was iconic
i wish carlos still in the band..
Idgaf what yall gotta say about Carlos lol I fucking love him he gave me TOTBL I worship him for that

Sam holds his own as a drummer, though, I think.
Daniel Kessler is an incredibly underrated guitarist, has a really good tone quality that can only really come from years of practice
Nailed it. They were at their best when they were all in it. Though their last album was good.

The guy who runs my favorite record store is buds with the original drummer
Damnn thats so cool, has he told you anything about him?
@@gumbee9967 nope :/ just a cool piece of info I had
@@havilinhargraves9122 ah thats still pretty sick!!
He was also the drummer for the emo band saetia

i think interpol won't be the same without Carlos and if this band is going to change that much as it was released with the last album, they just have to start a new project as a new band. i dont know its just what i feel ... anyway it was worth it as this worked
He's composing now. His scores are pretty good! On his website.
Wow, Paul reminds so much of Jim Harper from the office
Jim Harper? Do you mean Jim Halpert??
Lol Jim helpheart.
I think it's even more interesting that you made that judgement when you don't personally know him.
@MsStellaBrightside i like the last album its just that i think interpol wont sound like a post-punk band, and then it wont sound like interpol we knew. by the way antics is my favorite album =)
pda the best song
Pretty sure someday Carlos will come out of the closet like a real vampire lord from the XVII century.

why did he left? T_T
He left to become an actor
Carlos should have met Phil Manzanera
"host a game show " lol

This is funny to read today.
It’s a true statement because there aren’t any good records after Carlos left the band
