Bloc Party - Silent Alarm

What a fantastic album this is, truly good for almost every occasion. Definitely some of the best driving music I've heard in recent years. One of the things I love about their sound is that you can really discern the layers of sound, drums, bass and guitar all go in such clear and complimentary directions I find myself rocking out to the drums in one moment then on to the bass in the next. Perhaps that is what a good mix does. Though, it seems I have gone through thinking at least 3 songs were my absolute favorite, at different times... This is what I like best today.

Favorites (in order):

Positive Tension
Like Eating Glass
Banquet
Pioneers
So here we are
Price of gasoline

Just buy it.
