I don't think they've started to get mainstream radio play in the US yet (at least not in the DC area) but I've really been digging their EP. 'Banquet' is their single btw, you can get a remix from www.blocparty.com but the remix is a bit uninspired.

The link seems to be down.

Anyone else think this was about the Bloc Québécois? I mean, it's kind of uncool to be a "fan" of a political party.

Damn them and their shitty band webhost...

I came into this thread with so much material too

I've got a few songs of theirs, and I like what I've heard so far. A step above Franz Ferdinand for sure.

I hate the Bloc, damn separatists.

Tell that to BigJonsson ;P

I like Banquet, Little Thoughts and Helicopter... it never struck me how few alternative/indie bands with black frontmen I saw in British music press until these guys came along. It reminds me a bit of Franz in the bass or guitar or something, but different enough.. and the south London vocals remind me of Blur or something. Only because of the accent though really. I'll have to hear more to know if I like em or not.

Yep, I'm going to see them and The Killers in January

Don't really like the guy's voice, and it's a bit bland musically. I'm quite tired of all these Gang of Four knock-off bands.
