Carlos Dengler

Three months after Dengler left Interpol, the band revealed that he actually disliked playing bass guitar. Drummer Sam Fogarino stated that Dengler had become sick of the instrument and tired of touring, and that it was neither his first instrument nor his instrument of choice.

Dating back to his days at NYU, Dengler is a skilled club DJ. He stopped for a short time, but picked it up again and as Interpol's fame increased he started pulling in bigger crowds both at the band's after-parties and separate gigs in various cities. He was the first rock star to appear on the cover of the electronic and hip-hop centered URB magazine, in 2005. The article focused on his history and talent as a DJ, his thoughts on various scenes, personal style and his role as the face of the band.

In the time between Antics (2004) and Our Love to Admire (2007), Dengler took up an interest in film composition and scoring. He now actively works on original film and TV projects. His work in this medium includes the short film Golgotha, which he wrote, produced and scored, as well as My Friends Told Me About You, in which he was a lead actor. Read Less
