Bloc Party have set it for release on April 29th next year.

Bloc Party have confirmed the details of their sixth studio album Alpha Games.

It’ll be the first from the band since 2016, when Hymns introduced a new line-up consisting of bassist Justin Harris and drummer Louise Bartle after the departures of Gordon Moakes and Matt Tong.

“From the moment we wrote Traps, we knew it had to be the first thing people heard from this album; playing it in soundchecks on our last tour before it was finished and hearing how it sounded in those big rooms and outdoors,” Kele Okereke has said of the lead track.

Also announced is a European tour for 2022, which will be in the UK from the end of May.

Day Drinker
Traps
