BLOC PARTY RELEASE NEW SONG โTRAPSโ
ANNOUNCE SIXTH STUDIO ALBUM ALPHA GAMES OUT APRIL 29 VIA INFECTIOUS/BMG
Bloc Party announced details of their forthcoming sixth studio album Alpha Games, out April 29th 2022 via Infectious / BMG. Alpha Games is the bandโs first studio album since 2016โs Hymns. Alongside the album announcement, Bloc Party have shared new single โTrapsโ as the first taste of the upcoming record.
Produced by Nick Launay and Adam Greenspan (Nick Cave, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, IDLES), โTrapsโ sees the band returning to the raucous, high-octane sound of their earliest work in an outburst of propulsive post-punk.
Bloc Party singer, songwriter and guitarist Kele Okereke on the single said, โFrom the moment we wrote โTrapsโ, we knew it had to be the first thing people heard from this album; playing it in soundchecks on our last tour before it was finished and hearing how it sounded in those big rooms and outdoors.โ
