British indie rockers Bloc Party shared a groovy new single called “Virtue,” the third track we’ve heard from their forthcoming fifth album HYMNS. In a music landscape oversaturated by EDM-influenced tunes, it seems a bit late for Bloc Party to jump on that bandwagon. With the exception of “The Good News,” that seems to be the direction they’re going with based on this third track. We miss the riffs and fans seem to agree.
Listen to “Virtue” above and watch the video for “The Love Within” below.
HYMNS is out January 29th via Infectious/BMG/Vagrant.
