Bloc Party – Talon

Bloc Party are an English indie rock band. Their brand of indie rock has been compared to bands such as The Cure,Gang of Four and The Strokes. The band formed at the 1999 Reading Festival by Okereke and Lissack. They went through a variety of names before settling on Bloc Party in 2003. Bloc Party got their break by giving BBC Radio 1 DJ Steve Lamacq and Franz Ferdinand’s lead singer Alex Kapranos a copy of their demo, “She’s Hearing Voices”, which was later released as a single. In February 2005, the band released their debut album Silent Alarm. In August 2008, the band released their 3rd album, Intimacy with little promotion apart from the preceding single “Mercury”, released digitally via their website. The CD version is to be released in October.
