Wow, this is huge. Bloc Party have revealed heir new single, and it is completely different than anything they have released before, and I’m not too sure whether I like the direction the band are going in.

7/7/07 came and it was time for Live Earth. There were 8 concerts in all held around the world, starting in the East and moving Westwards throughout the day due to timezones.

Live Earth is nearly upon us, with the series of worldwide concerts all taking place on Saturday 7/7/07. It’s got to be said, the United Kingdom has by far the best line up of all, with more A List bands playing London than the rest put together. This isn’t about that though, I just had […]
