I've never heard of these guys, apart from their recent debut single 'Banquet' which I saw on Popworld.
IT WAS GREAT! WOW!
Do they have an album or are they still really underground? Popworld usually gets their first and the people commenting above me are so lucky to have heard them!

Re: Bloc Party pioneering new release
I think you missed the Drowned in Sound-related irony of that post.
i.e we write lots about BP.

Bloc Party AND the Kills? I really want to go to that Somerset House gig now.
Re: Bloc Party pioneering new release
I'd heard they were releases a new new single to coincide with the October tour.

It won't ACTUALLY just be available for one day - it'll be one of those 'deleted on day of release' things - ie, once shops have sold out of the copies they ordered intially, they can't order any more.
Bloc Party pioneering new release
ooh the old sepultura deleted first day single tactic .. actually i really like this song, probably one of my faves on the album.
Re: Bloc Party pioneering new release
THEN NME LIED!
Re: Bloc Party pioneering new release
To be fair, my source is probably slightly less reliable than the NME.
Actually...

Re: Bloc Party pioneering new release
pioneers is fantastic, but it would be ultra sad if price of gas doesn't get released. such a great song.

Twat.

...let me be the first to offer the apparently revolutionary idea that Wire were a load of bollocks. Now we've got that done...
Shouldn't release 'Price Of Gas', 'Like Eating Glass' innit.

I may quite possibly be in Monaco on that day.
Annoying, huh?

Umm what about This Modern Love?
Re: Bloc Party pioneering new release
kele always wanted to keep that as an album track.
WHAT A WASTE!
there are plenty of songs they could've (and have done!) released from the album tho...

Kele said they want to move more into 'Pioneers'/'Blue Light' style, didn't he. I want more sappy songs like 'Plans' and 'This Modern Love', dammit!
I'm such a wimp sometimes.

Re: Bloc Party pioneering new release
'blue light' is quite sappy.
Re: Bloc Party pioneering new release
Thank you I was just wondering where that little suggestion would pop up. This Modern Love is the best song on the album for me - especially as my boyfriend got very confused on his bike whilst listening to it with his headphones in the wrong ears... Superb song + slightly amusing anecdote = WINNER!
And yes before any sarcastic comments arise, Bloc Party will of course relay the slightly amusing anecdote in every promotional activity they do. :S
