Oh my god. I'm so excited. This is so awesome. Bloc Party, perhaps the best band that has ever existed, will release their third album, Intimacy, this Thursday, August 21. Oh my god. I'm so excited. This is so awesome. According to the press release:
Bloc Party alerted fans to Intimacy’s existence, as well as their ability to purchase the record instantly, via their first-ever web chat this afternoon. After an unfinished version of their last album, A Weekend in the City, was leaked four months prior to its release, the band decided to get their newest collection of songs out to fans immediately upon the album being mastered and ready for the hearing.
Intimacy is available now for pre-order at the band's website. Meanwhile, the physical version is due October 28 via Atlantic Records and will apparently contain different tracks. It's unclear at this point whether or not these "different tracks" are shittier.
Intimacy tracklist:
