It is the end of a "generation" of music for Bloc Party. The british indie/alternative/art/electronic rock group has re-invented itself from album to album. They're most recent album "A Weekend In The City" was well received and had a slew of EPs, the latest of which was "Flux". Now a new era dawns, that of "Mercury". The new single was released on BBC's Radio 1 after a countdown ended on the Bloc Party website. The track is reminiscent of The Prayer a track on A Weekend In The City, but also sounds of Flux or a remix of any other Bloc Party song.
The song also released with a corresponding music video as well as a website overhaul to accompany their next album. On Radio 1 Kele Okereke (lead singer/guitarist) claimed they were in mid-recording process.
The Mercury Single is available for pre-order now at Blocparty.com, with a 12'' and 7'' vynils plus a CD each of which contains it's own set of goodies.
So get clicking, and enjoy what the Bloc has in store for us in the future.
