What was the first song you ever heard by 22 (Bloc Party)?
Banquet, I remember not liking it that much at first, maybe since the hype machine around the band was quite intense in Sweden. I grew to love it though, since it by all means will be a future classic as a symbol for that post punk trend that Bloc Party and Franz Ferdinand among others kicked off around 2004. I saw them on a few occasions early in their career and they were always brilliant. Their new stuff is way to pompous for my taste however. I like my Bloc Party like this, minimalistic, dry, and desperately reaching for something. Reaching is better than have reached.
