"Alpha games" LP coloured by Bloc Party

Bloc Party launches with the new album 'Alpha Games'. This limited indie-exclusive edition is released on colored Vinyl (solid red).

Ambition. Corruption. Desire. Dysfunction. Dominance and submission. Getting what you want - no matter the cost. Burning bridges. Separations. Losing sight of each other. Playing one's cards. Sleight of hand tricks. These are just some of the themes and energies that simmer beneath the surface of 'Alpha Games,' the sixth Bloc Party album, ready to erupt. The songs of 'Alpha Games' have been in the making for a few years - the first seeds were planted in 2018 and 2019 during the extremely successful Silent Alarm Tour.

With its prickly riffs and relentlessly driving drums, 'Alpha Games' feels almost breathless and incredibly intense - its narrative lyrics seem to captivate the listener. It is - as Justin Harris describes it - 'forward-looking, with a strong nod to the energy of the past.' 'Alpha Games' feels like a rebirth, channeling the core energy of Bloc Party through a fresh new perspective.
