Year in Rock 2013 Nominee: Bloc Party
BLOC PARTY
Ratchet
From: The Nextwave Sessions (EP)
Released: August 12
Considering the inter-band problems leading up to its release, it's a minor miracle that Bloc Party's fourth album (2012's Four) ever got recorded (go ahead and look into that). That said, it's not entirely surprising that they're on another hiatus. I'd never rule out a reformation at any time, but if The Nextwave Sessions and its pulsating single Ratchet end up being one last thing to remember them by, Bloc Party left us with a formidable body of work.
