Robots and Bloc Party? I'm down
How about Bloc Party robots? Huh, huh?
I was on the fence about the new 'Party single "Flux" - to me, it initially sounded like they were trying to hop on the electrohouse coattails of JUSTICE and Digitalism, so I passed on it. Plus, it's such a different turn than what the Londoners had been delivering as of late - guitarist Russell Lissack's axe shredding was noticeably absent. I felt like "The Prayer" was a good step in a new direction, but "Flux" seems to be adding that and elements of a more toned Prodigy together, which I'm interested to see develop, if any.
Through and through the song has grown on me, and the video just came out:
Wow. The best thing about this video is that the robot in the beginning has one of those LED scrolling sign belts. Root for hipsterdom.
My question, is: which veggie monster is my indie rock boyfriend? These things are important to know...
