I think it's just the pic but he's like in his late 20's. He's the most stylish band memeber but I do love Kele's hair. His haircut reminds me of Jonny Greenwood's.

Yes they are good I had forgotten all about them until you mentioned them. I actually have an EP by them and had completely forgotten about it. But I'm looking forward to their bebut album sometime this year.


Its interesting how much Bloc Party's sound has changed

Helicopter (2005)

today

Mercury (2008)

But I'm not sure If theyve gotten better.
