an album i like a lot: silent alarm by bloc party

hi,
im writing this from my phone because im too lazy (and stoned) to turn on my computer. i had to download the blogger app for this. btw.
anyway, im listening to this one in full for the first time, and its really a great record.

on the surface, its seems very of its time (2005), at least to me, and not at all in a bad way. the vocals remind me of a lot of alt rock/emo bands which i love, and i could totally hear gerard way doing some of these songs LOLL.

but, the sound and overall direction is soo interesting. it's clear just how much post punk was an influence and i love it.
plus, it was released on february 2, 2005. just one day after my birthday!! yaay

heres the link to listen on spotify 
and heres the album on youtube 
standout songs: helicopter, she's hearing voices, plans

loves you (the girl reading this),

devon.
