ROCK WITH YOUR BLOC OUT :: Bloc Party- Better Than Heaven

Bloc Party- Better Than Heaven

Definitely my favorite tune off Bloc Party's third album Intimacy .... Better Than Heaven is the perfect platform to show off singer Kele Okereke's vocal talents. The song begins immediately with verse over bass notes and continues until halfway through, the bass notes give way to a guitar driven climax. With lyrics like "You get sadder, the smarter you get - and it's a bore", Kele is telling us that as we lose our innocence - we can become more jaded. But that's ok because "If this world does not turn you on ... well I've got enough for the both of us". Stop thinking, start feeling ... it's only sin, original sin.

Keys N Krates - Treat Me Right

Toronto based Keys N Krates took the DJ experience and added a live drummer and keyboardist. Adam Tune, Jr. Flo and Matisse started of playing live Hip Hop, then House music and now they are primarily making Trap. Their live shows are energetic and powerful. I had the chance to see these guys from backstage at Pitchfork two years ago and I was extremely impressed. Treat Me Right is getting major play, including from TNGHT. This is also the first single from their Solow album, their first and forthcoming EP on Dim Mak Records.
