BLOC PARTY (UK) ANNOUNCE ANNIVERSARY TOUR
UK indie rock royalty Bloc Party are reuniting with fans down under, announcing a headline tour hitting Australia and New Zealand in August joined by special guests Young The Giant. Bloc Party are celebrating 20 years as a band, and the 20th anniversary of their critically acclaimed debut album, Silent Alarm.
Fans in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Brisbane, Christchurch and Auckland will experience Silent Alarm alongside Bloc Party’s greatest hits. With almost two decades and six albums worth of material, fans will be spoilt for choice with favourites in live form including “Banquet”, “Helicopter”, “This Modern Love”, “Flux” and more.
Described as a “defining moment in 21st century British guitar music” by Clash Magazine, Bloc Party’s debut album remains as integral to the cultural zeitgeist as it did when it came out in 2005. Silent Alarm fills sweaty indie dance floors with its propulsive beats, sharp guitar work and catchy pop hooks. It won NME Album of the Year in 2005 and Indie Rock Album of the Year at the 2006 PLUG Awards along with nominations for Best Alternative Act at the MTV Music Awards and the 2005 Mercury Prize.
Ready to amplify Australian stages again following their sold-out co-headline tour with Interpol in 2023, Bloc Party are set to electrify audiences with their genre-bending catalogue of hailed gems.
