Although it’s easy to get swept away by Bloc Party’s melodies, a closer look at the lyrics reveals a discussion of England’s recent bus attacks and the ensuing terrorist witch-hunt: “The newscaster says the enemy’s among us / As bombs explode on the 30 bus / Kill your middle class indecision / Now is not the time for liberal thought,” The third track on the album...
