Bloc Party

"One More Chance" (Stream)

Bloc Party have flirted, since their sophomore album, A Weekend in the City, with becoming a full out dance band instead of an angular post-punk with dance-music influences, and it seems like with new single, "One More Chance," they've finished the switch. The song is fueled by a house beat and keys, and the guitars are mostly there to lend muscle to the beat instead of the thrust. This isn't as bad as some of the bad songs on Intimacy, but it's not "Banquet," that's for sure. 

 

The "One More Chance" single is due out August 10 via Wichita. [Stereogum]

Just out of curiosity, what do you think some of the bad songs on Intimacy are?

I'm not feeling this new song at all. Maybe it'll grow on me with a few listens, but I don't like it.

Zephyr, Better Than Heaven, and Signs for sure.
