Best thing Bloc Party have ever done... releasing it this way I mean, and maybe the music itself, who knows! This is the way forward, long live the web usic revolution that just keeps getting better and stronger as leeches in suits get pushed out of the equation. Established bands like Bloc Party and Radiohead (though there's no other comparison between them of course) can do this alone and it'll work - but for new bands there are vrilliant sites like cherryecho.com and aralie to provide a starting boost.
