They are the ones who opened for Ballboy and Cinerama a couple of years ago at the Blackcat. I remember some board members didn´t like them. I thought they were very decent. How's the album?

Bloc Party....
 
 Not a bad record. The other day I was going to post about them in the Just Announced thread but never bothered. Not interested in the other bands and I'm not that big of a Bloc Party fan so I won't be bothering.

Most of it sounds like Robert Smith fronting Discovery-era Daft Punk. It's ok but gets a bit tedious towards the end of the disc.

What do you not like about it, Pollard -- too slick, too downbeat/upbeat, etc...?

they can pull of not doing that fairly well, a couple of decent songs off domestiques, this one just isnt nearly as immediately enjoyable as Hate

 This one has potential to look real nice on my year-end best of list.
 
 Off to search for show dates now...

 A bit of an impulse purchase always looking for qualtity stuff to spin at those "special" shows. like the versions of the poppier dylan tracks and the dub disk is nice...
 
 p.s. i can probably get a hookup on the cd/free t-shirt combo should anyone be interested...

[brennser]

easily, the album of the year for me - awesome stuff

Agreed.  I think this is a surprisingly good album.
