meh all 3 are good. silent alarm is there most energetic, intimacy perhaps there most alternative and then witc some where inbetween. all good and forever changing:)
Intimacy wasn't as good as A Weekend In the City, which in my opinion is their best album, but Intimacy wasn't all that bad, it has given us a gem in the form of Ion Square
@XXweedboyXX as an 'old fan' of bloc party i wouldnt agree at all, intimacy was brilliant, and as bloc have always been about progression i think most fans would agree. Havent heard many 'old' radiohead fans call in rainbows horrible which is a similar sort of thing.... personally a weekend in the city is my least favourite albums with silent alarm as my favourite
@XXweedboyXX Maybe "real" fans would understand how a band would crave experimenting and evolution in their sound. And if you gave the album a good listen I'm sure you would find a lot to love. There are some great tracks on Intimacy.
IDK, kelly's lyrics are pretty good. plus He's singing and playing for the whole time too not just doing backing vox. The band as a whole is talented in my opinion.
Matt is a fucking awesome drummer though I will say that.
listen to every bloc party song, even the slower ones like so here we are and you will see the diversity and complicated drums played by matt in every song, he always uses a different beat and is definatley the most skilled member
because gordy has a lower voice like mark from blink 182 and kele has a higher voice like tom for blink 182. they don't sounda at all the same but the way they use the high and low in different songs like banquet and song for clay is really effective. like blink

I dont think intamacy is considered "alternative" at all. Its more electronic. Silent alarm is what i consider alternative.

bloc party are a completely different style than blink 182, and their vocal style (even if they use high and low) sets a completely different mood.
