Bloc Party are an English indie rock band, currently composed of Kele Okereke
(lead vocals, rhythm guitar, keyboards, sampler), Russell Lissack (lead guitar,
keyboards), Justin Harris (bass guitar, keyboards, saxophones, backing vocals)
and Louise Bartle (drums, percussion). Former members Matt Tong and Gordon
Moakes left the band in 2013 and 2015 respectively. Their brand of music, whilst
rooted in rock, retains elements of other genres such as electronica and house
music. The band was formed at the 1999 Reading Festival by Okereke and Lissack.
They went through a variety of names before settling on Bloc Party in 2003.
Moakes joined the band after answering an advert in NME magazine, while Tong was
picked via an audition. Bloc Party got their break by giving BBC Radio 1 DJ
Steve Lamacq and Franz Ferdinand's lead singer, Alex Kapranos, a copy of their
demo "She's Hearing Voices".
In February 2005, the band released their debut album Silent Alarm. It was
critically acclaimed and was named Indie Album of the Year at the 2006 PLUG
Awards and NME Album of the year which both honour indie music. That year, the
record was also certified platinum in Britain. The band built on this success in
2007 with the release of their second studio album, A Weekend in the City, which
reached a peak of number two in the UK Albums Chart and number twelve in the
Billboard 200. In August 2008, Bloc Party released their third studio record,
Intimacy which entered the UK Albums Chart at number eight and number eighteen
on the Billboard 200. The band went on a hiatus in October 2009 to focus on side
projects. They reunited in September 2011, and shortly thereafter released their
fourth album, Four, which entered the UK Albums Chart at number three. In 2013,
Bloc Party released their third EP titled The Nextwave Sessions in August; the
band then began an indefinite hiatus to continue with their respective side
projects. The band's fifth studio album, Hymns, the first to involve Harris and
Bartle, was released on 29 January 2016. Bloc Party have sold over 3 million
albums worldwide
