详细介绍:
On their sixth album, Bloc Party sound as vital and vibrant as on 2005%27s Silent Alarm, back during the indie sleaze era. Their latest is also as fun and high energy as that influential debut; if this were a person, you%27d be suspicious they%27d had cosmetic work done. The band continues to find inspiration in New Wave and art-school punk as singer Kele Okereke%27s big personality—that London accent as distinct as ever—tries on different guises. You can feel the angst as he rushes the verses of Day Drinker, its sharp, crisp drums egging on the adrenaline release. Excellent single Traps layers edgy, nervous guitar and shotgun drums as the singer walks the line between louche and letch: Cute like Bambi/ But you%27re headed to a trap … I wanna be your education/ I wanna be your contact high. Okereke gets playful on the otherwise ominous Callum is a Snake, decorated with hissing and a shout of SNAKE! at the end. Sometimes it means dipping into unexpected pockets. There%27s an early %2780s giddiness, à la Fun Boy Three or Altered Images, to You Should Know the Truth, complete with sunny guitar, group backing vocals and exaggerated sighs. And the whole band leans into the high-drama theatricality of ABC on Sex Magik—remembering a teenage summer fling that made a deep impression, with Okereke intoning Earth-earth, air-air, fire-fire, water-water like a hypnotic mantra—and Of Things Yet to Come. That one drips with rococo flourishes from Okereke and guitarist Russell Lissack (they remain the only original members). The Girls are Fighting, meanwhile, adopts a soccer-chant vibe and screeching metal guitar solo to tell the story of a bar brawl: It%27s a riot at Inferno%27s/ The filth are on their way … The bouncer%27s made a movie/ Upload it to WorldStar (Scrag fight!). By Any Means Necessary is funky and slinky, and irresistible If We Get Caught sports confident show-off snare and an angelic chorus. For jazzy-bass closer The Peace Offering, Okereke goes deep—truly, he expands his vocal range—and dives into a spoken-word, beatnik hep-cat mood.
