i prefer Silent Alarm, on Weekend In The City it sounds like they're trying to do too much and losing something in the complexity, and right now I can't reallly tell many of the tracks apart. But maybe it will grow on me.

Not in good quality though..

Waiting for the 7.18 along with Kreuzberg = sex.

yeah despite what I said above, Kreuzberg really stands out, its quite awesome. Waiting for the 7.18 has a nice sound, but for some reason isnt very memorable to me

Yeah it's been around low quality since December, and the high quality leak came about two weeks ago, but since nobody here had pointed it out, I figured I'd bump it

not to drag this whole thing out or anything, but the copy i got early november is near-perfect quality (192kb VBR)

on topic, how freakin good is the clip for 'the prayer'! nice n trippy

Really really liking the new album, copy I got is pretty good quality as well.
Bloc Party are awesome, I can't imagine them having a bad song.

It was probably a webrip.

But lets not dwell on that.


Didn't like it initially, slowly coming around to a few songs, though still not that impressed.

fkn adore the new album so highly.

i love 'silent alarm' but the music on 'a weekend in the city' has a different sound imo...im loving it

best tracks are 'i still remember' and 'waiting for the 7.18'

mmm kele

was it Silent Alarm or the new one?

the first i think is much better, the second one has its moments, but also sounds very cheesy in some parts

Yes nice logic retard, did you not notice what you posted in a thread called Bloc Party?
Yeah, but it's not like he said the band was a bunch of morons who couldn't hold a tune if it played itself and they fail at life.

I'm not saying that, by the way, just an example. I haven't really heard much Bloc Party at all to be honest.

LOVED Silent Alarm.

however, A Weekend in the City just failed to grab my attention.
good album, but not great (in my opinion atleast).
standout track: hunting for witches

:)
