New Bloc Party Out...Now


So much for foreplay. Former indie darlings Bloc Party have chosen to forego the typical industry buildup to their latest album, opting instead to make it availalbe for download now. Intimacy, the the British troupe's third LP, was released digitally on the band's website earlier this week essentially with no warning. The foursome's followup to 2007's A Weekend In The City will be released in hard form in the U.S. on October 28.

Not sure how we feel about this one yet.



For those who are partial to their previous work.

Telograph No More


Shit.

Kings of Leon Pee Razor Blades


Kings of Leon don't merely fritter away their days on women and drink. They also happen to churn out some rather good songs about fittering their days away on women and drink.

Clan Followill's fourth full length album, Only By The Night, is set for release on September 23. Seems the U.K.'s favorite good 'ol boys have been trying out some of the new tunes on the summer fest circuit, including a recent stop at the All Points West Music and Arts Festival in New Jersey. Several of the new tunes are making their way across the net. Our favorite, Sex on Fire, is below.




Indeed.

U.S.Royalty Issue EP


The Society interupts its summer slumber to report that D.C. yacht rockers U.S. Royalty have released their first EP. DC area fans have several opportunities to join in on the regalia with a smattering of shows scheduled throughout the District in August and September. The video for the band's first single, Every Summer, can be viewed at their home in the series of tubes.
