Massa, Bloc Party , venham com tudo!!!! Sintam esse primeiro single do " Four ", novo álbum. Posts relacionados: [Single] "One more chance", Bloc Party [Video] "One More Chance", Bloc Party Trojan Horse - Bloc Party

Bloc Party have been missing in action for some time now - Four years actually, which makes the new album title very fitting. 'Four' will be released August 21st, and will be the bands fourth studio album. Hear the first track from the album 'Octopus' below.
On August 21, Bloc Party will break their four-year hiatus with the release of a new record, Four . The band's just debuted the first single "Octopus," by way of a jumpy new video directed by Nova Dando , which is wrought with blink-and-you-miss-it flash frames and a seductively choreographed rhythmic gymnastic number. The song is available digitally tomorrow, and as a 7-inch on August 13, backed by the B-side "Straight Thru Cru." No stream for this one as of right now, but posting this really couldn't wait until tomorrow. [...]
The back-in-action Bloc Party are returning next month with their new album Four , and today they've given us the video for first single "Octopus." The clip, directed by Nova Dando , mostly focuses on members of the band in their practice space, but it's cut together so quickly that it should really come with an epilepsy warning. As for the song, it's a pretty clear indicator that Bloc Party haven't quite outgrown their dance-music phase yet. Check it out below. Read More...

Bloc Party’s new single: Octopus

With the Bloc Party comeback in full swing, it was only a matter of time until we got some real material. The first single from Four is here, with a video to match. On first listen, it seems like the band is up to its old tricks - the sharp guitars of their debut are pushed to an extreme by the staccato riffing here and the overall sound couldn't be mistaken for another band in the world right now. The video itself is appropriately jumpy, and it's impossible to deny that it's good [...]
U.K. dance-punk outfit Bloc Party are returning with a new album "Four," out Aug. 21 via Frenchkiss Records. The album was recorded with producer (and former L.A. denizen) Alex Newport, now headquartered in New York City. The video for the palpitation-inducing single "Octopus" — quite possibly the coolest thing we've heard from Kele Okereke and gang since their 2005 debut "Silent Alarm" — was filmed during the BBC One premiere of the song. Convulse accordingly. ||| Live: Bloc Party plays HARD Summer 2012 on Aug. 3 at L.A. State Historic Park.

I'd like to be all cool or whatever and present this without comment, but the truth is that the first time I heard the new Bloc Party record I started acting not unlike tween girls do whenever a new One Direction single hits the airwaves. I love Bloc Party. A lot. For the past couple of years, I've been concerned over the prospect of a breakup and what seemed to be a rather uncertain future, so I was particularly relieved when they started making festival appearances and announced a new album earlier this year. So [...]
Hay dias en los que quiero darle una nueva oportunidad a Bloc Party despues de las cosas bastante lamentables que nos entregaron en sus ultimas grabaciones, aaaunque, no todo era tan malo, pero tampoco fue lo suficientemente bueno como lo que nos presentaron al inicio y si, eso es algo bastante malo ya que cada uno de los integrantes tiene habilidades musicales que podrian explotar mucho mejor. Pero bueno, aqui abajo pueden ver el video del primer sencillo que se desprende de su nuevo album "Four", en el que al parecer ya han dejado de lado todo ese estilo electronico [...]

Bloc Party está de regreso, el próximo 20 de agosto saldrá su cuarta producción Four, "Octopus" es el primer sencillo y aquí está su video ¿Les gusta? Enjoy.

Watch 'Octopus' below. Four is out soon. Kele recently shared a Heart Playlist. Click here to view the embedded video. MP3: Kele - On The Lam (CRST Mix)

Bloc Party's anticipated fourth album, appropriately titled Four , is finally on its way. The band has just embarked on a new tour, and revealed the latest installments of the upcoming album. They played a lot of new cuts last night at their stop in Glasgow, and the footage for "3 x 33 and "Team A" turned out well enough to get a sense of what direction the band is taking. You can check out the new song below and decide for yourself whether to start getting excited for that August 21st release date. "3 [...]
Nada más y nada menos que siete. Siete temas nuevos en un concierto del que estamos seguros los asistentes no pudieron salir más contentos, sobre todo después de que el año pasado fuera movidito para la banda. Hablamos de no otros que Bloc Party, cuya estrategia para promocionarse pasó por montar un culebrón que implicaba la despedida del carismático Kele Okereke y un sinfín de acusaciones entre ambas partes, las cuales ahora mismo no está claro si eran ciertas o eran, como insiste la banda, precisamente eso: promoción, o una broma que [...]
![Story Books - "Peregrine" hits Radio 1 Introducing Playlist + show @ KOKO w/ Bloc Party [Video]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4338199_lg.jpg)
Last autumn "Peregrine", an early demo from Medway six-piece Story Books , caught the attention of two indie luminaries in Huw Stephens and John Kennedy . Fast-forward to June 2012 and that same song, with its delicate arpeggios and impassioned vocals, has been chosen for the BBC Radio 1's Introducing Playlist , prompting its official release (digital June 25th / 7" July 9th). In the intervening months Story Books have been accruing fans via their debut single "All These Arrows" and some jaw-dropping live performances, including a sold out headline show at Hoxton [...]

È prodotto da Alex Newport (già al lavoro con Death Cab For Cutie , The Mars Volta e At The Drive-In ), è stato registrato a New York e arriverà nei negozi il 20 agosto. Stiamo parlando di "Four", quarto disco dei Bloc Party che è stato annunciato dallo stesso frontman Kele Okereke proprio sul suo blog: Dopo il mio disco solista, volevo trascorrere un anno senza musica, altrove. Mi sono portato quattro dischi: "Led Zeppelin IV", "White Pony" dei Deftones, il mixtape di Nicki Minaj "Beam Me [...]
