Has anyone heard 'Little Thoughts'? It's not from Silent Alarm, but it's much more indie then most of that album. I really like it anyway. Helicopter, Like Eating Glass and Pioneers are all pretty good songs too. Must say, I can't listen to the album as a whole though...it gets a little boring. ^_^

Little Thoughts EP is, ahem, flantabulous, but it wouldnt have set with the mood of Silent Alarm. And yeah it gets really snoozy towards the end doesnt it? They shouldve cut a couple of songs like Luno and Compliments out.

i see you think exactly like me....i said the same thing a while ago....the first 10 songs were perfect...from then on it's just filler-no thriller....
edit: and i was reffering to the fact you saw them live...i say flantabulous too...well actually fantabulous...close enough...

Must say, I'm not a fan.

Why listen to that MTV2 force fed crap, when you can go buy a White Magic album and rock out!!!

I like Kele Okereke's voice...When he's actually singing.

Anyway, I still like Bloc Party and I still like "Silent Alarm" (although I bought it long ago...). You're all right saying that it's not a masterpiece, but some tracks a really great...you already mentioned..."Hellicopter", "Banquet", "The Pioneers" or "Positive Tension", but I also like "She's Hearing Voices" and "This Modern Love".
Nevertheless, I was quite suprised they grew big that fast. I mean they're an Indieband still.
Anyway, my most favourite song's and always will be "Staying Fat", just because of Matt Tong. He's the most ingenious drummer I've ever listened to. He's got the beat...
