Music News: Bloc Party announces new album title and tour

At the beginning of the year, I wrote an article in which Kele from Bloc Party announced that the band had been working on an album that would be released later this year.

Well, now we have a date, album title AND tour line-up!

Bloc Party now under the Frenckiss Record label will release their fourth album “Four”, also the first album in four years, on August 21st.

Here’s also a teaser trailer with music from Bloc Party’s “Four”:
