Bloc Party – One More Chance

I would call myself a Bloc Party fan but I think sometimes a band can be too prolific. We already had the remix album this year and a few things lifted from that and now only a few months after that we got a new track. Before we start talking about the actual new song, can you believe it has been over 5 years since Bloc Party wowed all of us with that EP?

“One More Chance” is a produced by Jacknife Lee and represents a sizable departure from what you can come to expect from Bloc Party. The track is largely based around a few piano chords. It is one of the bands stronger singles. The production on Jacknife is rather slick. Kele’s vocal is out front and maybe a tad to loud but that is just a little nitpick. The band do always keep things fresh and try to give a variety in each single release. They could have just packed it in and released a few “Banquets.” But, I think Bloc Party have achieved a level where they need to make us miss them again.
