In August 2017, American indie-rock band Interpol—at the peak of their tour supporting Marauder (2018), marking a return to moody post-punk after El Pintor—performed at La Route du Rock, an annual festival launched in 1991 in Saint-Malo, France, as a platform for alternative music emphasizing indie and post-punk among 30,000 at Fort de Saint-Père. Their hour-long main stage set on August 18, captured in high quality, embodied their European tour climax, where Paul Banks and Daniel Kessler's guitar textures merged with Sam Fogarino's drum power to evoke emotional resonance under Breton skies. Featuring tracks like "Obstacle 1", "Evil", and "The Rover", this show highlighted their veteran status in New York post-punk, turning the festival grounds into a realm of collective trance.
