(3 out of 5 stars)

"I think some people's comments (like pitchforkmedia's) about the holdoverness of this title are a little over the top, as this is supposed to only be a french title, and is just here by import status. The main point of this title is the same as say the Cure's BBC ep released way back in the early 80's when they were still in their Boys Don't Cry stage, this is meant as a document of their Black Sessions session, the things tacked on it are there basically to make it a french single for Say Hello to the Angels with the Black Sessions on it. So in that light is it worth buying? Not unless you really loved Turn on the Bright Lights and can't wait for the next cd, or if you really want to hear the Black Sessions, then you'd be like me. I basically bought this because it was french, you may laugh at me, but I had just gotten back from france, and thought it'd be cool to have a french Interpol cd. However the Black Sessions were worth the 10 dollars I spent on this (believe me dont buy this from Amazon if you really want it), and hearing the song Specialist was cool as I haven't heard it before. I unlike most people don't feel like Interpol has been overhyped (now the strokes and yeah yeah yeah's are and with less good music than interpol) as they have the music to back up the write-ups. And thus I think this cd isn't just a holdover, it's mainly a document of the Black Sessions. As such you should only spend the pmney if you feel like that's enough to warrent the price. (and yes the sound is very quiet)"
