So I just picked up this album, and I'm currently listening to "Octopus." Bloc Party was one of the bands that brought me into the music scene, so I have a special place for them in my heart. Hearing about them coming together to make a fourth album after a long time of some inactivity is really cool.

Anyway, just from what I've currently listened to, this album seems to be returning to their earlier style heard in Silent Alarm and A Weekend in the City which I kinda prefer. It's still different from their debut style, but it's not bad.

Here's a sample:



Anyone else Bloc Party fans or have bought the album?

This is a superb album, by a superb band. Although not as good as Weekend in the City imo.
