Intimacy

Just like their heroes Radiohead, Bloc Party sprung a real surprise on us with this one. Two days warning and BAM! - the album was available for a fiver to download. Of course the record company will recoup expenses with the physical release in October, but the release of third album Intimacy surprised many, especially with it being within 18 months of their previous effort, A Weekend in the City.

However, in this day and age, surprise internet releases are all the rage, and once the hubbub has died down, the real question emerges - is it any good? Even after extensive listens, the jury is still out there. For me, Bloc Party are one of the very best indie bands out there in the current climate of "what NME says, goes", and their first album Silent Alarm, has to be up there amongst the great debuts of the 21st century. However, AWITC was an album of two halves, the first part trying to be Silent Alarm MK II, the second part packed with apathetic ballads completely unreminiscent of Alarm tracks such as This Modern Love and So Here We Are, finishing off with the complete anticlimax of SXRT.

When Flux was brought out, some thought it to be jumping on the new-rave bandwagon, but it was just an indication of the direction Bloc Party intended to move in. electro has been infused heavily into this album, most noticeably in first single Mercury, which has polarized opinion far more than any track I've heard in recent times. I personally think it to be a winner, a song to get sweaty to in clubs, a remix song without the remix.

Opener Ares also shows what the Party have been listening to, stealing the drum pattern almost wholesale from the The Chemical Brothers' 1997 hit Setting Sun. This album pleasingly also goes back to the roots of just rocking out in the style of early songs such as Helicopter, Halo showing such a predilection. Gordon Moakes's drum fills bubble just under the surface, proving once again he's one of the finest drummers around merely by daring to circumvent the 4/4 tradition.

Kele Okereke's sometimes cringeworthy lyrics make a return - "You used to take your watch off before we made love" opens Trojan Horse, an otherwise fairly unmemorable track. [track artist=Bloc Party]One Month Off proves they haven't left behind the sound of their first record completely, sounding mostly identical to She's Hearing Voices.

An album highlight is Zephyrus, taking the best parts of AWITC's Where Is Home (the hushed choral bits) and covering the same album's opening track Song for Clay (Disappear Here). Again, the latter half of the album is where it starts to drop off a little, but Better Than Heaven and apparent new fan favourite Ion Square still provide listenable moments.

The early mention of In Rainbows now seems far more relevant. The two albums share a lot of similarities - if you listen to the two keenly you might notice, since Bloc Party are self-confessed worshippers of Radiohead. However, they are also comparable in that they are great albums, but in the light of previous work, they seem to look limpid and pale. This is by no means a bad album, and nowhere near as disappointing as AWITC, and a definite purchase is recommended. As for me, I'm still firmly in the Silent Alarm camp.

Friday
Micachu and the Shapes - Really like this band. Shame the technical side was down, despite that they were funny throughout :)
Chew Lips - Disappointing. It was all i'm wearing a bright outfit and doing some crazy moves, can i be Karen O now? Every song sounded the same and really what were the two guys doing there.
The XX - Probably the most unexpected performance, really good.
Polly Scattergood - Kate Bush but holding her own at the sametime!
Crystal Antlers - Amazing. Lots and lots of energy, the percussion guy was really entertaining to watch too.

Saturday
bang bang eche - I love this bands energy. How they all swapped intrustments and coming behind the barrier and playing there instead.
VV Brown
Die! Die! Die! - I think atleast the two girls infront of me were scared. I liked it.
Gang of Four - Amazinggggg. So happy to have finally seen them live. But I'm more than disappointed that their set was cut.
