The British rockers have gone through so many changes over the past 2 years alone its more or less impossible to keep up. Original members Gordon Moakes ( 1ston the left) and Matt Tong ( far right) have left the band after playing there final gigs at the Roxy in Los Angeles following alleged rumors of internal fights and disagreements over the direction of the music.
RIP Gordon and Matt but we now have new bassit Justin Harris and drummer Louise Bartle. Lead singer Okereke has confirmed they have now finished work on their Fifth record. Are you excited??. If this latest offering is to go by were not, its miles apart from classic standout tracks such as ‘Helicopter’ and ‘Like Eating Glass’ from Silent Alarm there debut studio album.
New single ‘The Love Within’ has divided opinion with Youtube fans stating :
brad wadsworth what is this sh**t. stick to guitar led tracks with a nice synth backin

Other YTUBE fans are still pining over the OLD BLOC Party..
