Bloc Party follow up their Top 40 hit “Little Thoughts”, with the tight & stiff plus jingly jangly bits “Helicopter”, which was recorded by Paul Epworth (Futureheads), & mixed by Rich Costey (Rage Against The Machine). So it comes as a bit of a surprise at just how much it’s on a Cure tip, especially the distant suffocating vocal, swirling through the manic rhythms. Bloc Party’s debut album is due in 2005, look out for it.
