But when something is billed as authentic -- and I believe rock music should be nothing if not authentic -- Interpol's obvious commercial aspirations are a real turn off for me.

i got no probs if someone wants to blantantly make a living playing music. obviously, i'd prefer some sort of punk rock, DIY, stick-to-your-guns ethos to be attached to it, but ultimately if it's something I enjoy, i'm all good.
