Listen: Bloc Party Stream New Track ‘Day Four’

Bloc Party have revealed a second track from their forthcoming album ‘Four’.

‘Day Four’ is taken from the record, set for release on August 20th, and follows the previously unveiled ‘Octopus’. You can stream the track below.



Speaking to Rolling Stone about ‘Four’, the frontman says that the band’s fourth album is set to be ‘quite visceral and confrontational.’

‘We felt as a band that we needed to reclaim the process,’ he said, in regards to the more ‘raw, lo-fi sound’ that’s found on the album.

However, he remains cautious of giving too much away: ‘I’ve been rather cautious about not speaking too much about what things are supposed to mean, or what things are supposed to be about. I think that it’s more exciting if people, if our fans, just got a record and sat with it and discovered the nuances for themselves, or they read something into the music that I hadn’t even seen.’

The tracklisting reads:

1. So He Begins To Lie
2. 3X3
3. Octopus
4. Real Talk
5. Kettling
6. Day 4
7. Coliseum
8. V.A.L.I.S.
9. Team A
10. Truth
11. The Healing
12. We’re Not Good People
