xxmartinxx Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 I picked this up today locally, but what the fuck is up with the price? 19.99 for a normal weight, non-gatefold sleeve single LP? Seems like some vinyl price gouging to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hickey Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 The high price is your punishment for buying any Bloc Party album that isn't Silent Alarm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blanketbyday Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 The high price is your punishment for buying any Bloc Party album that isn't Silent Alarm. any bloc party album in general is gonna be overpriced mumbo jumbo, hype! hype! hype! hype!

googlemyass Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 actually intimacy is a more enjoyable album in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hickey Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 I haven't heard the whole thing yet, but the follow-up to Silent Alarm was dreadful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
googlemyass Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 i agree with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxmartinxx Posted November 16, 2008 Author Share Posted November 16, 2008 Agree with the senament that "A Weekend In The City" was a pretty poor follow up, but "Silent Alarm" was so good that I have to try their new record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhysa Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 A Weekend In The City was great. I love the new record. Only modern indie band in this country to care about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manicdogbert Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 how many songs are on that? 10 or 14? i bought the UK picture disc (to go with my picture discs for Silent Alarm and AWITC). much to my surprise, the picture discs' sound quality is pretty comparable to the black vinyl pressings.

nickheitman Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 yeah it is. and silent alarm was a 3xLP and was like 15, so that's odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enjoyadrian Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I like the single they play on sirius, mercury. Maybe i'll give this a shot. Also does anyone know anywhere online selling silent alarm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkykbs Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 It looks on purpose. false. they were just doing so bad that he hid behind the drummer. when he figured out they were so off. everyone else during that show actually played live Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manicdogbert Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 It looks on purpose. false. they were just doing so bad that he hid behind the drummer. when he figured out they were so off. everyone else during that show actually played live what difference does it make? anybody who has seen them live knows that they are a tight band. tighter than a nun's cunt, in fact. television performances, live, mimed, or otherwise, are always shit anyway.
