Bloc Party to record
2012-01-03 by Statrick Pickles | 36 Replies | 1920 Views |
Though announcing last year that he would be leaving Bloc Party to pursue a solo career, frontman Kele Okereke has recently announced via radio and via Facebook that he will indeed be accompanying his former bandmates in recording a new record, the group's first release since 2008's Intimacy. According to Okereke's radio testimony, the English indie-rockers have already finished some tracks for the new album and plan to finish recording and release the album before the end of 2012.
The full story and some radio clips are available over at BBC's website:

Finally, if only they can release something again in the vain of Silent Alarm.

awesome news. love me some bloc party.

O.O
Fuck yeh. Hopefully they've abandoned the dance-beat shit that was Kele's solo stuff and some of their singles (Flux, anyone?). Having said that, Intimacy pt.2 would be nice, too.
|

really hope this rules.

Silent the alarm is still a major guilty pleasure of mine.
Guilty?! How dare you...
|
| |
yeah what does that even mean
|
| |
Guess Okereke's solo career didn't blow up like he thought it would.
|
| |
''Guilty?! How dare you...''
Srry bloc it's the only album that I like by them actually.
|
| |
i'd be up for intimacy part 2, actually (with some natural progression that can come from 4 years, of course). i love me some bloc party

Am I the only one wanting Intimacy 2.0?

best band
|

One Intimacy is enough, I mean I like it and all but that style doesn't really play to their strengths. To me their best styles are Silent Alarm and the b-sides from Weekend
