Those who paid for Bloc Party’s Intimacy were treated to an MP3 of “Talons,” a special non-album single yesterday (at least until September 10 when it gets added to all future copies). The song is very much like the rest of Intimacy: electronic sketches augment the siren-blaring guitars and machine-like drumming.

Intimacy is out now digitally via Atlantic, and physical copies will be available via Atlantic on October 28.
