british indie band bloc party put out a new video for their new joint, and it’s awesome. off the new album, intimacy.

first time i heard of bloc party was from my girl raqui, but the first time i jammed them was at this barber shop in boston with my man kendall. i know what you’re thinking, but it wasn’t a typical barbershop. it was more like a salon, but i found a hispanic dude who cuts good hair in there, so i kept coming back. besides, they have a rhapsody account, so they just have a plethora of jams on a constant rotation at all times. we heard some joints, kendall bought the first album on iTunes that night, and it became our power moves theme music for the weekend.

i’ll throw you a few loosies from it. i encourage those who claim not to like rock to check these joints out and at least let me know what you think. they kinda crank, in my opinion.
