Bloc Party release their second full-length album A Weekend In The City - 5th February 2007 through Wichita Recordings. Produced by Jacknife Lee and recorded at Grouse Lodge Studios in Ireland. Bloc Party's newest collection of songs is a stunning, intense and brilliant follow-up to their celebrated debut Silent Alarm. The album will be preceded by the single The Prayer, released 29th January 2007.

A Weekend in The City is inspired by lead singer Kele Okereke\'s interest in what he calls "the living noise of a metropolis." On Weekend, the band captures every detail from ebullient to the mundane - of daily life in a modern city, and the quiet desolation that suffuses everything from commuting to casual sex, from going out on a Friday night to the long ride home in the early hours of the morning. These are songs desperate to understand the meaning that pulses under the moments of our everyday: there are bursting with tension, paranoia, sadness, love and an intense need for reason as to how city life has become so displacing.

cannot wait for this!

Yay!

I still dig on their debut. Hope it measures up.

i do to DJ. i hope their recent tour with Panic At the Disco isn't a bad sign. the new tunes they played at Coachella were excellent.

in all honesty...i dont think it will top silent alarm or even come close....i do think it will be a solid release though
