SummersRadio™ New Music + Free Download! Bloc Party!

SummersRadio™ New Music + Free Download! Bloc Party - 'Octopus'/ 'Octopus' (RAC Remix) (includes free download)

Bloc Party have just released their new song online called 'Octopus'! 'Octopus' is the first single from their forthcoming fourth album simply called 'Four' which will be released on August 20th on the Frenchkiss Records label (which was founded by Syd Butler of Les Savy Fav).

'Four' will be the band's first album in as many years - and their first new full length since announcing their hiatus in 2009. The twelve track album will be available on a plethora of formats including on cd, deluxe edition cd, a vinyl plus cd package, picture disc vinyl, and on download. It's produced by Alex Newport who's worked with Death Cab For Cutie and The Mars Volta - as well as bassist Gordon Moakes side project Young Legionnaire.

The 'Octopus' single is released on itunes today and it will also be released on a limited edition 7" single on August 13th. The song features their usual mix of guitars and electronic effects and bears a bit of a resemblance to Digitalism's hit 'Pogo'... Enjoy!



The Remix Artist Collective aka RAC have wasted no time in remixing Bloc Party's new single - in fact they just posted this remix on Facebook just four hours ago! The remix is the official song of this year's sold out Melt! Festival in Germany.
