I liked AWITC, but always preferred Silent Alarm.

 

Intimacy wasn't terrible, but it was certainly their weakest.

This discussion will go on forever. Intimacy is, for me, astonishing. I can't believe that you all don't see it littered with 10/10 tracks.

Silent Alarm

Intimacy

A Weekend In The City

 

With Tony on this one. Find 'AWITC' the weakest of the 3. 'Intimacy' is so good. Apart from the two bonus tracks their isn't a weak song on there.

 

Listening to 'Four' now.

 

Listened through it all, and i'm hoping it'll grow a bit more on me after a few listens. It has its moments (I love Day Four), but on the whole i'm a bit indifferent to most of the songs on it after my first listen.

For me it's pretty much always been:

 

01 A Weekend in the City

02 Intimacy

03 Silent Alarm

 

I think it's just because I was only a fan from 'Two More Years' onwards and the anticipation for an album really adds to the whole experience for me (if that even makes sense? Ha). They really are three of my favourite albums ever though.

 

I was a bit underwhelmed on first listen too, Y!kes, but it's already grown on me a LOT. Hoping it'll continue growing. I'm liking how it's not too instant though because they're always the ones that burn out the quickest!

It's most like Silent Alarm but wih lots of distorted hard rock on top.

Yeah, it's definitely sounding a bit better on 2nd listen.

 

Day Four is such a tune.

Literally listening to this all the time. Before work, during lunchbreaks, on the walks home, at home. SO GOOD. I hope I won't get tired of it soon :lol:

 

 

B-sides!

I need standouts. I suppose I've come to expect at least some Bloc Party songs on a new Bloc Party album to make me sit back and go - wow, they are the best band around.

At the moment, this is how the album stands for me, from favourite to least favourite:

 

01 Truth

02 Team A

03 So He Begins To Lie

04 Octopus

05 Day Four

06 Kettling

07 Real Talk

08 The Healing

09 Mean

10 3X3

11 Coliseum

12 V.A.L.I.S.

13 Leaf Skeleton

14 We Are Not Good People

 

Seriously in love with the album now. I knew I would be after a while haha.

So far it's like this for me

 

01 3X3

02 Real Talk

03 Coliseum

04 Truth

05 Mean

06 So He Begins To Lie

07 Day Four

08 The Healing

09 We Are Not Good People

10 Team A

11 Kettling

12 Octopus

13 V.A.L.I.S.

14 Leaf Skeleton

 

Love them ALL though.
