New Single: Bloc Party

The moment I heard "Get Lucky" by Daft Punk, I declared it the song of the summer.  Then I heard "Blurred Lines" by Robin Thicke and Pharrell had to also declare it the song of the summer.  While both of those songs are going to blaring at every summer bbq in 2013, eventually we will get sick of them and seek out respite.  This is where "Rachet" for Bloc Party fits in nicely.  It's an awesome song, but it's not going to be overplayed on the KIIS-FM's or the Power 106's, and it's definitely not on Pauly D's playlist.  It's a song that makes you dance, makes you happy and is perfect for celebrating the fact that you can wear flip flops without getting frostbite.

Summer songs are ones that soundtrack the fun-filled memories, while watching fireworks or making out with that random guy you met at the beach.  Which reminds me, I might need to head down to Hermosa tonight to see what's crackin'!

Look for Bloc Party's upcoming EP, The Nextwave Sessions, out on August 13, 2013.
