Bloc Party - Intimacy
Track 1 -
Ares
An awesome opener, enough to rival Like Eating Glass, but I still reckon LEG has the edge! Kele's vocals on this track are so interesting he shows off his speech, falsetto, yeling and everything else he seems to be able to do. The voices in the background remind me of the start of Prince Charming - funny. To me this is a nice merge of old skool Bloc and new skool Bloc.
Track 2 -Mercury
When first hearing this I truly hated it. It has since grown on me and now hearing it in context with the album I really don't mind it now. That said it would not be anywhere near my favourites of the album. I'm not going to describe this track, you should all have heard it by now.
Track 3 -Halo
This is what I would consider classic Bloc Party. The sound of the guitars and the drums are beautiful :) This is certainly one I am looking forward to live. And I love the line "Paralyse me with your kiss, Wipe those dirty hands on me"
