British rock band Bloc Party has reunited
It’s time to get reacquainted with Bloc Party. On hiatus since 2009, the best-selling British band is relaunching its career with a new album out Aug. 20 titled “Four.” That’s also the number of band members: guitarist Russell Lissack, bassist Gordon Moakes, drummer Matt Tong and frontman Kele Okereke, recently voted by readers of the sex-and-relationship website Nerve.com as this year’s sexiest man in indie rock (he beat out guys like Yeasayer’s Anand Wilder and Michael Angelakos of Passion Pit, the latter last here in concert in December 2010).
