Biography
Nama : Bloc Party
Birth Name : Union
Birth Date : 1999
Birth Place : Essex, England
Sex : B
Occupation : Art-punk/indie rock band
Claim Fame : Debut album "Silent Alarm" (February 2005)

Bloc Party are a British art-punk/indie rock band. The band has been around in various guises since 2002, with names like The Angel Range, Diet and Union, before settling on Bloc Party in September 2003.

Band members Kele Okereke and Russell Lissack, who both grew up in Essex, have formed the fulcrum of these various incarnations, and were subsequently joined by bassist Gordon Moakes, and most recently drummer Matt Tong.

The band got their break after singer Kele Okereke went to a Franz Ferdinand concert in 2003, and was able to thrust a demo CD containing the song “She’s Hearing Voices” into the hands of both Franz lead singer Alex Kapranos and Radio One DJ Steve Lamacq. Lamacq subsequently played the song on his radio show, labeling the track “genius”, and invited them to record a live session for the show.

This sparked an A&R frenzy, leading to the eventual signing with indie label Wichita Records.

Their spiky, intelligent and passionate guitar rock draws on influences such as Sonic Youth, Joy Division, Gang of Four and the Cure.

Their critically acclaimed debut album, Silent Alarm, released in February 2005, went to #3 on UK album charts, with the single "So Here We Are" making the top 5.

Often compared to contemporaries Franz Ferdinand.

The name is a play on block party, a name for a quasi-informal neighborhood festival, which might hire a local band as entertainment.

Kele Okereke (Voice and Guitar)
Russell Lissack (Guitar)
Gordon Moakes (Voice and Bass)
