Mercury

I love the new Bloc Party song it's much better than their last tune. Like Flux though it has no guitars, but it does have the usual trademark drumming and there's even trumpets and a dirty bass noise kicking in half way through. Mercury can be heard on Zane Lowe's site here.

Boring by the Sea

Brighton's own Blood Red Shoes have been added to the Pukkelpop festival in Belgium next month so to celebrate check out Blamma Blamma's excellent remix of Getting Boring by the Sea.
If you haven't heard of Pukkelpop it's been going for 23 years and I've been to the last 3. It's smaller in scale to Glastonbury, a darn site cheaper than any festival in the UK and has a great mix of rock, indie and electro. After seeing Soulwax and Bloc Party up close and personal a few months ago, I can't wait to see them again with the likes of: Sigur Ros, The Cribs, The Breeders, Boys Noize, SebAstian, Simian Mobile Disco, Does it offend you, yeah? Midnight Juggernauts and Uffie to name but a few.
