Song is actually pretty good, I think. But boy was I disappointed that this didn’t sound like Toxic. That would have been sweet.

This is far too progressive to be Bloc Partys work alone.

It’s good, they may just have a future in music…

I've seen them ocuntless times, but I gotta admit this is really terrible. The strongest thing about this band has always been their guitars and the blistering drums. Now all of that is gone. I hope people finally get off the hype train on this one and admit that it's pretty crappy.</P> I’m a big Bloc fan. I’ve seen them ocuntless times, but I gotta admit this is really terrible.

I've found that after a while though, Kele's voice just starts to become grating and I just stop listening.</p> I’m liking the song so far, as I tend to like most of what Bloc Party has put out initially.

(compare this to the third futureheads album for instance.)</p> this is kind of a mess but it’s a one off single. i wouldn’t put all that much stock into it. and plus, anyone professing to be a fan of this band that’s surprised that they are going further down the (or kele’s) rabbit hole is being disingenuous or misinformed. he’s always talked about doing things like this. and even though it does kinda suck, at least it’s sonically interesting, which has always been their strong point anyway.
