Talons, by Bloc Party.



Bloc Party only recently released their 3rd opus "Intimacy". There was a clear change of style in this album, predominantly towards a more experimental and electronic sound; with tracks such as the well known Mercury being a prime example, but with Jacknife Lee and Paul Epworth producing separate halves on the album... it was always going to be interesting.

A few days ago, Kele Okereka and his fellow band members announced that "Talons" will be the next single to be released, with a current release date of the 20th of October. It will be included on the CD release of Intimacy.

The track matches the new experimental sounds, more electronic synths and the like; but the guitars remain - unlike Mercury. Probably one of the standout tracks from this garland of new material. Put pithily by Kele, they released this track in order to "keep things fresh".
