do they:
?
I've just downlaoded their album and I must admit I like it...
I don't like them personally. Not my kinda music. But I'm sure in their genre they're ok, so I'm not gonna say they suck.
I only like "Two more years".
I can't stand that song. I remember thinking it starts off well, but then that chorus annoys the hell out of me. So damn repetitive.
not a big fan, helicopter is a nice song. and mike skinner did a nice remix of some song, can't remember which.
great album silent alarm is, they've just put out a whole new album remixing silent alarm.
i like them.
they rock. they shred ass in Positive Tension.
They ripped off XTC pretty much. But they're not bad..

That's my fav one.
Yeah I quite like Bloc Party, they're not like up there with my favourite bands or anything, but the album 'Silent Alarm' is pretty consistent and enjoyable! It's one of very few albums I can listen to out loud without getting complaints from the parents/neighbours, and it's good when they get played at clubs and stuff. My favourite songs are probably 'Pioneers', 'Luno' and 'Compliments'.
I enjoyed their album until they started getting mass radio play, which always annoys me! but ive seen them twice live an they are a pretty good band!
I like em, but they did start to annoy me for a while.
Their stuff's ok. Over here in UK though I don't like the kind of kids who listen to them. Indie kids.
Yeah, the type who think they're cool cos they listen to bands like The Killers, Kaiser Chiefs, Franz Ferdinand, Arctic Monkeys and all that shit. Although I do feel a certain loyalty towards the Kaiser Chiefs since they're from Leeds. :-[
Uhuh, those exact kids. I just don't like 'em.
Muse. 8)
Have you heard anything by them?
Great harmonics and melodies but they wear their influences (and riffs) on their sleaves.
Like a harmonic snack before putting on a Cure/Deftones album as a main.

i agree with you 100% boys and girls. But i have to say i do find indie girls very attractive, i just went to see biffy clyro live and the gig was sponsered by NME so i 99% were like indie kids and u know i noticed that they are not far from EMO kinds in dressing style now, except that they dont wear as much black and pink colours.
Great band. The UK has a lot of great bands to offer lately. Seems like the scene is growing.
i like bloc party. the silent alarm album is great.
this band really is great. never thought i could get into this brit-pop/rock whatever genre.
but A Weekend In The City has been in my car stereo for about 9 months now. still a great listen
wow, i had no idea this thread existed. weekend in the city is a fantastic album

YES! i know man, right? one of the few bands that their b-sides are as good as their albums, too.
i hate bloc party...with a passion.
one of the most annoying sounding bands.
