A lot better than Mercury.

I'm a fan of their recent progression of sound despite silent alarm being a really good album, however this track doesn't excite me too much. Cluttered sounding without too much sparkle.

This sounds alot like the "silent alarm with expeerience" that bloc party were talking about. Sounds great, although I will say to the Non Believers, grow up, bands change!

Probably one of the most hyped bands of recent years. Utter Shite. Totally un-memorable tunes. Rubbish.

I think there a great band. I havn't heard much of there first album but A Weekend In The City is a brilliant album, pure power from start to finish and I Still Remember, one of my favourite ever riffs. I'll probably wait until the CD is released in the shops, too much hassle with these downloads I'd rather just a pay Kele and co a tenner and have the CD in my hand to be honest, I havn't heard the new tune yet.

Wasp solo! Wooooo. Interesting sound but a pretty uninteresting song.

Such an awesome song, definitely a grower, its a good thing they haven't stuck to Silent Alarm formulae (although such a brilliant album) and have opted towards innovation rather than just money in the bankâ€¦

I think it's not bad, but Bloc Party are a bit overrated. Mercury was utter shite frankly - nice idea, they just messed it up. A Weekend in the City is a 7 or an 8 - never a 10 out of 10.

This is a sad day for all major Bloc Party fans. Gone are the days of Silent Alarm! I mean, I almost gave up hope with AWITC, as that was dire. Murcury is shocking. It hurts my ears, why so much electro? It's sad.I only hope that Bloc Party realise this and rectify asap! We all know bands change, but this is a change for the worse!
