A Weekend In The City - Vinyl, CD

Bloc Party: A Weekend In The City Ltd. versie op vinyl LP in standaard editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Europa bij uitgeverij [PIAS] op 26. juli 2024.

"A Weekend In The City" is the second studio album by British indie rock band Bloc Party, released in 2007. Building on the success of their debut album "Silent Alarm," this follow-up project delves into themes of life in modern cities, touching on issues such as drug use, sexuality, and existential despair. The album showcases a mix of post-punk revival sounds with electronic influences, marking a slight departure from their earlier work. Notable tracks include the lead single "The Prayer," which features a distinctive rhythm and showcases the band's evolution in sound. Other tracks like "I Still Remember" and "Hunting For Witches" highlight the band's ability to blend catchy melodies with thought-provoking lyrics. "Flux," which was added to later editions of the album, brings a dance-punk element to the collection. The album's closer, "SRXT," is an emotive ballad that provides a somber end to the journey through the cityscape that Bloc Party paints with this ambitious and critically acclaimed record.

Album valt binnen het genre Rock en Indie Rock.
