I have to say they're not THE best band but they're very good. a pretty decent debut album and Kele Okereke has a lush voice. T'would be sehr interesante to see what they develop into in the next few years.

Personally, I think that they're a solidly rad group, and I have tickets for their upcoming show. However, they generally strike me as a wholly average new indie-beat band. And trust me, there are swarms of these little boppers.
I mean, they're not doing anything particularly revolutionary:: their lyrics aren't striking, their sound isn't new, and if you're looking for a band who can make you dance they don't exactly deliver there either. I suppose, however, that they do have the potential to pull a franz/killers on us and get obscenely big - but that's not exactly a testiment to their supposed exemplary originality.

I like Bloc Party
I never thought I would find people sharing my taste of music...in the world wide web!
I like Bloc Party. Just bought their LP last week & now I'm listening to them all the time. My favourite songs are "Banquet" (of course), "Blue Light" & "Positive Tension", but I guess the whole album's just GREAT!!! Do U also see the parallels to JOY DIVISION? I mean, this kinda "dark, smoothin' vibe"? Just answer me if U want to... I just haven't read all of ur posts, but I agree that Matt Tong is a f***ing awesome drummer!!! And bout Franz Ferdinand: The beat & drums are very important for both of them... That's just why both of their drummers are that incredibly gorgeous! I LOOOOVE TO ROCK
