Is this what happens when bands get too much exposure too soon? One minute Bloc Party are the freshest offering the UK rock scene has spawned for years, delivering an intense debut lp packed with rage and grace, the next they turn into a complacent bunch with lukewarm singles. Here the second excerpt from new album ‘A Weekend In The City’ gets tampered with by Speaker Junk (twisted house) and the likes of The Chap, Gavron and Lull (indie-leftfield renditions) but Ed Banger’s Sebastian scores best with a dark & tough reinterpretation that sticks to the song.
