Nachdem was ich bislang von BLOC PARTY kannte, wusste ich garnicht so recht was mich nun erwarten sollte: "Banquet" im Phones Disco Edit spricht natürlich ganz meine derzeitige Electro-Phase an (eben im Sinne von "The Faint" oder ganz süss: "Go with the Flow" von "Northern Lite")- Jagernauth, Kevin (29 June 2005).

Following exposure with British magazines and newspapers and a successful performance on BBC Radio 1, [6] Bloc Party received a contract offer from Parlophone. The band members declined the opportunity because they did not want to work for a major record label and instead signed a recording contract with East London indie label Wichita Recordings, [7] chosen because it did not want to stamp its agenda on the conception of records. [8] Frontman and chief writer Okereke wanted Silent Alarm to emphasise the importance of finding pleasure in small mundane things, because "those are the sort of things that can be incredibly touching". The album was born out of "a nagging youthful urgency" and the realisation that responsibility has to be taken for the first time as a young adult. [9] Before recording started, Okereke attended singing lessons to open up his voice. [8] Recording [ edit ] a b c d e f Inglis, Sam (January 2009). "Paul Epworth: Producing Almost Everyone".
