Why do we like this?
A couple days ago we prematurely leaked the new Bloc Party single "Octopus." Today, it's officially out, and streaming on YouTube (below).

The song comes off the band's upcoming August 20th release Four, their first since Intimacy. You can pre-order the album via the band's website.

Pretty stoked to see these guys back together. Particularly because this track is absolutely amazing, in my opinion exceeding any of the band's ~2008 work.



Tracklist:

1. So He Begins to Lie

2. 3x3

3. Octopus

4. Real Talk

5. Kettling

6. Day Four

7. Coliseum

8. V.A.L.I.S.

9. Team A

10. Truth

11. The Healing

12. We're Not Good People

13. Mean

14. Leaf Skeleton
