In June 2013, when Bloc Party performed "Banquet" at the Best Kept Secret Festival, the band was in a notable phase of their career. They had recently released their fourth studio album, "Four," in August 2012, which marked their return after a hiatus and showcased a shift toward a more mature sound while still maintaining their energetic rock roots. The performance at this festival was part of their effort to reconnect with fans and establish their presence after this break, solidifying their status in the indie rock scene. Interestingly, "Banquet" is one of their signature tracks from their debut album, "Silent Alarm," released in 2005, highlighting the enduring popularity of their earlier work even as they continued to explore new musical directions. The live rendition reflects the band's dynamic performance style and the strong connection they maintain with their audience over the years.
