tbh i'd go on my own for Bloc Party, but most my mates are into them anyway and are always up for a gig.

 

im sure your dad would be the coolest to be seen with at a gig :)

 

I would but I might not get in? I'll go with anyone really, I just wish I had mates who like the same type of music as me. :lol:

its at a city hall, surely there isnt an age limit.

Guess who is seeing The Bloc for a third time? :kink:

 

:angry: I can't believe your going to beat me! :(

 

Thing is, I would go to the Bristol one, but I'll be at uni by then (probably) and seeing as I don't know WHERE I'm going yet I can't really get tickets for anywhere! (And even if did I'd have to buy them now and go on my own because I don't know who I'll meet at uni yet!)

LOL BRING IT BITCH

 

 

im already advantaged so yanno.

If there's an age limit to the gig it would be Over 14's, but it's a City Hall, so I don't think they'd be selling alcohol? Even then when i've been to gigs at Barfly before it's only 16+. If you go with someone over 18+ though you should be OK.

I am not going. £25 for a ticket is way out of my price range. o_o

The Filthy Dukes remix of 'One Month Off' is good.

Intimacy remix album coming

 

Bloc Party are set to release an remix album on May 11 based around songs from their third album, 'Intimacy'.

 

The album, 'Intimacy Remixed', will be preceded by a single release - a version of 'Signs', remixed by Armand Van Helden, on April 27.

 

As well as the Armand Van Helden cut the album will feature remixes by acts including Mogwai, No Age and Filthy Dukes.

 

The tracklisting of 'Intimacy Remixed', with the remixers in brackets, will be:

 

'Ares' (Villains)

'Mercury' (Hervé Is In Disarray)

'Halo' (We Have Band Dub)

'Biko' (Mogwai)

'Trojan Horse' (John B)

'Signs' (Armand Van Helden)

'One Month Off' (Filthy Dukes)

'Zephyrus' (Phase One)

'Talons' (Phones RIP)

'Better Than Heaven' (No Age)

'Ion Square' (Banjo or Freakout)

'Letter To My Son' (Gold Panda)

'Your Visits Are Getting Shorter' (Double D)

 

 

i now realise the taster videos they have been sending me through twitter (in replies and direct messages) are parts of the new Signs remix, it sounds wicked.

:dancing:

 

I guess that means John B ), not B)

That emoticon is well annoying :(

"Sorry, you do not have permission to view this private video" :manson:
They're doing Cambridge, I may go.

 

I want to go to Cambridge aswell, but my mates like horrid music and my sister will be at uni. Bad times :(

This is the official video:

SO f***ING GOOD, PROBERLY THE BEST BLOC PARTY REMIX I HAVE HEARD (and i have heard lots).

 

great it is 'single' status as well.

 

great video too.

 

cant wait for this album now.

Very good song. I think I may look to download said remix, and possibly even the album. We shall see.

The original is much better. Several things I do not really understand. Firstly why they chose AVH to remix this track? A man who's original and remix work has been stale for 5 years and this is no exception. I don't quite see what purpose this remix of 'Signs' serves? It's benign of any real emotion, it goes a bit bassline (why that is Idk) and it's generally very lazy. The video tries to create this sort of sinister edge but it fails with the pitching, tone and laziness of the remix knocking the whole "idea" off kilter.

 

I also don't quite see why they're releasing a remix album in the first place? The last one they did was pointless (and that had some excellent remixes on it). What purpose does this record serve other than being another product for Bloc Party to push? What will these remixes as a body of work DO. I think the answer is very little given the quality of this "single". They really frustrate me sometimes...

 

Oh and M83, Ladytron, SebastiAn and Crystal Castles have all done MUCH better remixes imo...
