Bloc Party rewangle Intimacy
sean by Sean Adams March 16th, 2009
and Gary Wolstenholme

DiS favourites Bloc Party return with a remixed version of their third album Intimacy

Wut the rewangle? If their previous remix album was anything to go by, Intimacy Remixed is going to be less a bedazzling collection of donk-enriched reworkings, and much more likely to feature a selection of sparse, de-jangled, ethereal reinterpretations, plus a few drenching-beyond-recognitions into totally different genres.

We say this because the album features remixes by the likes of Mogwai and No Age. Oh, don't pull a colon-open-bracket - there's bound to be some silly blogtronica action as Filthy Dukes, Hervé and We Have Band also feature on it.

Ahead of the album there'll be a single: 'Signs', as remixed by the greasy-aerobics loving Armand Van Helden. It's due for release on April 27th.

The remix album itself follows on May 11th, tracklisting as follows:

  1. 'Ares' (Villains)
  2. 'Mercury' (Hervé Is In Disarray)
  3. 'Halo' (We Have Band Dub)
  4. 'Biko' (Mogwai)
  5. 'Trojan Horse' (John B)
  6. 'Signs' (Armand Van Helden)
  7. 'One Month Off' (Filthy Dukes)
  8. 'Zephyrus' (Phase One)
  9. 'Talons' (Phones RIP)
  10. 'Better Than Heaven' (No Age)
  11. 'Ion Square' (Banjo or Freakout)
  12. 'Letter To My Son' (Gold Panda)
  13. 'Your Visits Are Getting Shorter' (Double D)

Here's the video for the AVH version of 'Signs':

DiScuss: Thoughts on the above remix? Did you like Silent Alarm remixed? Has Intimacy grown on you yet? Anyone fancy adding rewangle to Urban Dictionary?
