Bloc Party finally stepped out of the dark club and into the summer sun, and it sounds surprisingly great.

A rare burst of uninhibited optimism and shimmering melodic joy from a band usually known for tension.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The bright, interlocking guitar riff that opens the title track, signaling a rare moment of pure pop joy for the band.
The collaborative vocal interplay on Keep It Rolling, where the groove takes on a distinctively danceable, almost funky weight.
The atmospheric shift in Blue, where the tempo slows slightly to allow for a more expansive, melodic texture.
