About Bloc Party
Bloc Party came together in London around Kele Okereke and Russell Lissack, with Gordon Moakes on bass and Matt Tong on drums completing the classic line-up. Silent Alarm in 2005 carried 'Banquet' and 'Helicopter' and was nominated for the Mercury Prize. A Weekend in the City followed in 2007, turning to life in the capital, and Intimacy in 2008 pulled in programmed beats and electronic production.
Moakes and Tong left in the early 2010s. Okereke and Lissack carried on with new members and released Hymns in 2016 and Alpha Games in 2022, the latter a return to tighter, guitar-driven songs.
