This band I feel some people love, and some people cannot stand. Personally, I can't see whats not to like. It's snazzy indie music which is different to the other bands.
I really like there new style with the glocenspeile(Possible Spell Error) and the melody in the background, think its great.
Overall cracking song! Interesting Video, not much "light" in it though, just neon blue :)
But yeah, I agree with your first statement, I used to not like BP at all, but since Weekend in the City I've grown to like them, and I love their old stuff and new stuff as well, what I've heard anyway.
I seen them at T in the Park yesterday as well, they were amazing!
I've seen Bloc Party 3 times....but i've not seen them play Talons! I saw them play just after Intimacy was released and they played almost every track but this, they even played Biko for them first time ever live when i was there. However as far as im aware this is the best track on Intimacy (I know, I know someones gonna argue with this) but still! im a raging bull!!!! They better play it a T in the Park!!
remember that time that the blocparty played in brazil? then they did a playback of the presentation mtv VMB, and took a big hoot, and there he began presenting the show anyway, and said that the pro world mtv brazileira had no money to pay them so they can play live, this is the blocparty lie, that they were asked to do playback, or blocparty is a lie, not you trust these guys.

n 1908 a lady named sally rusa was in the woods looking for a dog until a ghost came and killed her so if ur reading this u will find a bloody body in your closet hanging there haunting you and will kill you and ur family and if u want to stop this just sends this to 6 vids in 30 mins

Agreed, Intimacy is different than the first two albums. But it doesn't matter to me. Songs like "One Month Off", "Letter To My Son", "Flux", "Better Than Heaven" and the monstrous "Halo" are with me every day.
It's an awesome collection of good music. And that's about it, nothing more to say :-)
dont be one of those 'helicopter is their best song'
here are some of my personal favs from each album
this modern love, so here we are, banquet, like eating glass, sunday, kreuzberg, hunting for witches, flux, the prayer, tulips, ion square, signs, your visits are getting shorter, mercury, better than heaven
ya lol I just relise im missing 4 singles of the album..thats what I get for trusting my Aunty-Bit-torrent,she lives in america,shes realy nice,sends me load of movies and CDs for free
i love bloc party...through marshalls are dead to just about flux. they arent a dance band, and this album's songs never drop like proper dance songs do!! where are the choruses!!!
they should have just brought out Another weekend in the city as the next album to weekend in the city. Rhododenhron, secret and vision of heaven are all better than any song on this album.
as much as I love BP's newest stuff I really kinda miss the rawness of the first album. But progression is progression. There wouldn't be much point to it if they repeated everything XD. <3
I'm just curious have you been listening to Bloc Party from the very beginning? If you have I don't see how you could think there stuff has gotten better and everybody who I know who is a musician and listens to them thinks they have progressively gotten worse. That doesn't mean I don't like them, I just went from absolutely loving them to just liking them a lot. I know I'm going to get torn apart for saying this, but I don't see how people can like this more than the old stuff.
It's called an opinion. Some people will prefer the early stuff over the old and vice-versa. I don't really see your argument about musicians. What makes a musician's opinion any more important than that off any other person?
Well lemme tell you as a musician and someone who happens to have a bloc party tattoo also :D I can tell you I personally like intimacy better than either of their album's trojan horse is IMO the best song they've ever put out, It is really all opinion though what might be badass to me isnt going to be great for everyone else though... But hey know you cant say every musician you know thinks they get worse.
I love how each member of the group is original and have their own style, yet they gel together so well! I love that, man! And they jrock even on the slow songs! BP!
no, you told it someoneelse and i didn't see it. but now i did :D well that's pretty cool, i'm very excited. they're hardworking.. the world tour and yet ideas for another album.
Even though I like a couple of songs off the new album I'm rather disappointed with it. I loved the other two albums, but for some reason I can't even connect that much with the new c.d. Does anybody else feel the same way?
I feel they are not taking advantage of Russell's and Matt's talent as before so they should make a paralel band if it keeps going this way, I liked the old stuff much more
Yea this band is awesome after all most rock music accept for metallica and indie rock music started with negro folk muisc and blues. There way to many stereotypes saying we only listen to rap
you have to learn english because it is the most useful language for you to learn. In America, though given the choices to learn French and German, most of us choose to learn Spanish because it is the most practical. To learn German as an American is almost never practical.
