About
Released just a year after their second album, <i>A Weekend in the City</i>, and shaped on the move in fast and furious recording sessions, <i>Intimacy</i> is the sound of Bloc Party sprinting boldly beyond their past guitar heroics. “Mercury” is a whirl of warped vocals and hectic rhythms, “One Month Off” hammers a snotty pop-punk banger into new, interesting shapes and “Ion Square” is <i>Silent Alarm</i>’s “So Here We Are” reconfigured as gorgeous, glitchy electronica.
