INTERPOL HAS COME FULL CIRCLE.

From the streets of New York to the pages of The New York Times — nearly 25 years into their journey, Interpol still know how to make everything feel cinematic.

These beautiful shots capture the band around the release of This Mirror Weighs a Ton, their new album that looks back at the city, the band’s roots and everything that has changed along the way. Dark, restless, human — but with a little more light this time.

There’s something incredibly special about seeing Interpol back where it all began, still dressed in black, still surrounded by amps and flight cases, still making New York feel like home. 🖤

A full-circle moment for a band that never really stopped evolving.

Meta is launching a prediction market, from today’s show, with @mike_isaac:

“Mark Zuckerberg recently directed his team at Meta to create a prediction markets app called Arena.

The app involves making bets on real-world events using in-game points, although wagering with real money has not yet been ruled out.”
