Banks, Paul - Julian Plenti Is Skyscraper

NEW VINYL LP ON MATADOR 2009.

A solo album -- yet not, Julian Plenti Is Skyscraper is the debut album from the alter ego of Interpol's Paul Banks. Plenti played acoustic performances around New York City during the late '90s until Interpol took off in 2001; it wasn't until 2006, thanks to the help of recording software Logic Pro, that Banks returned to the Plenti material. The Plenti identity -- as well as a host of musicians that only include a couple of Interpol collaborators -- gives these songs a little more distance from any Interpol baggage than if they were released as a Paul Banks' solo album. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Banks_%28singer%29
