Is that why it's one of the most critically acclaimed albums of the year? These guys are so obviously Gang of Four Lite, right up to the "political" lyrics.

gang of fire? em..ok.....well ....meh......i don't agree on the lyrics part, they mostly sing about love you know.....only 2 songs are about politics....where as gang of four are all about politics ( as far as i gather )

Only two songs about politics? Alright, to be fair some of the songs I was thinking of are social commentary, but I count at least 3 off the album that are straight up political songs. That's not even counting songs off of EPs and singles (listen to American Kids, The Marshals Are Dead, The Answer, etc.).

There`s more Bloc Party threads on this board than there are good songs by them.
