Album Review: Bloc Party - Silent Alarm


Well balanced, but a bit too languid.

While some tracks can feel a bit too languid, a bit too lengthy, and sometimes the melodies just don't really stick. The rest of the album is just extremely tight and concise, from the balanced production and the organic instrumentation, the catchy melodies, the bombastic performances, and the lyrics that fit the balance between post-breakup and personal, defeated musings surrounding everyday life with a touch of political topics sliding in.


It's great, though it did took me quite a lot of listens to really get my thoughts on this, it's a fun album to get into.
