Bloc Party

During the live recording of "Helicopter" at the 3Arena in Dublin, Bloc Party was reviving the energy of their iconic debut album, "Silent Alarm," which originally dropped back in 2005. By 2018, the band was celebrating the 13th anniversary of that influential record through their Silent Alarm Live Tour. This era marked a significant moment for Bloc Party, as they had reconnected with their roots, blending nostalgia with the excitement of live performance. The crowd's energetic response reflected the lasting impact of tracks like "Helicopter," which remains a fan favorite. Interestingly, original drummer Matt Tong was not part of this tour, lending a different dynamic to the band's performances. It’s fascinating how even after years, the raw energy and urgency of their early work still resonates deeply with audiences.
