Bloc Party - Real Talk
Off the bands fourth album 'Four', Real Talk is track number 4. The album was released in 2012 and was the much anticipated album for the band as they had come back from a temporary hiatus (of 4 years).
The album has a feeling of their first album which is much more striped down and more instrument orientated and was a great move from the band.
The song really does strip it down back to basics. A simple beat with a broken up off beat guitar and bass strumming pattern. The verse is again just as simple with Kele singing the words on each beat. The chorus follows the pattern of the verse with an added guitar part thrown in. The songs does have a Red Hot Chilli Pepper style about it and of anyone was the listen to the song part way through they could possible think they were listening to the RHCP's.
There is no music video with this song as is wasn't released as a single.
Song Rating: 8/10
Video Rating: n/a
A song reminiscent of the band we first heard and proof that they are still very talented songwriters.
