Reviews
Rolling Stone (p.112) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Fronman Kele Okereke treats his voice like a strange instrument, chopping it up and dropping it into the mix....Replacing Bloc Party's distant cool with vivid honesty, he makes INTIMACY a confident new peak for his band." Spin (p.88) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Kele Okereke's lyrics make it clear the album's title is no accident: This is his relationship record..." Entertainment Weekly (p.61) - "Bloc Party have proved they can throw out a scapel-drawn guitar line with the best of the aughts' new-wave revivalists..." Uncut - 3 stars out of 5 -- "'Mercury' is a decidedly aggressive single...'One Month Off' is a quality 'Banquet' rewrite..." Alternative Press (p.144) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "INTIMACY is arguably Bloc Party's finest moment thus far, offering sweat and circuitry, savagery and submission, and a captivating energy that's severely lacking in many music scenes on the planet." Mojo (Publisher) (p.104) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Bloc Party have decided, it seems, to really go their own way on an album of extremes, both musically and emotionally....Boldness has its own reward in the big grime beats, tension-filled horns and cold self-loating of 'Mercury'..." Clash (Magazine) (p.122) - "Varied yet coherent, commercial yet experimental, one of the most confusing and downright exciting albums of the year."
Additional information
For its third studio outing, INTIMACY, the British rock group Bloc Party makes a notable departure from the post-punk/shoegazer-influenced SILENT ALARM and the arena-ready WEEKEND IN THE CITY, opting for a boldly wide-ranging set of songs that often boasts a shiny techno veneer. In fact, INTIMACY's first two tracks, "Ares" and "Mercury," recall the more aggressive side of the Chemical Brothers, which isn't entirely surprising, since Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke collaborated with the electronica duo in the past. While some fans, particularly aficionados of ALARM, may be disheartened by such a sonic shift, the scorching "Halo" keeps the torch of earlier albums burning, and "Signs" picks up on the ensemble's occasional ambient leanings, showing that Bloc Party can maintain some bearings even as it sets out towards unfamiliar waters.

- 6***n (482)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSeller ticked all boxes, item arriving ahead of eta, well packed and in the condition described (honestly - could have graded it up a level to "excellent"). Excellent value for the price, I'm completely satisfied with the purchase.
- a***b (1695)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI was a little unsure about ordering a CD from Australia to the UK in case of damage in transit. I need not have been concerned - the CD was so well wrapped in layers of bubble wrap that it would have needed a sledgehammer to damage it! CD was described as good but it looked like new with clean case and no marks to the disc. With fast delivery from Australia to the UK, this was a perfect transaction. Full marks to this seller, I coukd not be more pleased.Anything Goes AUSTRALIAN ORIGINAL CAST RECORDING CD Good Condition FREE POST (#145980988336)
