bloc party. you are my favorite band. you already know that, i know. i love you so much. the lyrics at the end of this song, are jsut beyond: i am a martyr i just need a motive. i am a martyr i just need a cause. i am a beliver i just need a moment. i am a beliver i just need i cause. thank your for being alive, bloc.
Not that I don't like the other live performances but I think this is the best live performance of uniform ever! My most favourite song from A Weekend At The City!
Very fuckin good live performance. Every instruments are hearable. Nice vocals, cool bass, and awesome live effects on solo guitars, absolutely correct. They should play in our united university partyplace called JATE in hungary. We need bands like this!!!
This is a response to the comments about Russell's solo. Russell is using a max/msp patch, which dramatically changes the sound of the guitar with the help of audio applications, to create the "toy" noise. My guess is that Russell has an effect pedal that plays the patch. Kele uses a similiar patch for his guitar effects on "Hunting for Witches" around 1:30
it's pretty old-school. i used to have one when i was a kid, it was a little black box with four buttons, one machine gun, one laser, one missile firing, and another one, that i forget (you don't hear it in this song). just searched online for it, but i can't seem to locate it.
You gotta love that last minute of the song. Bloc party can really rock out when they want to. Its a shame they dont more often but its a cood mix. That guitar parts so rad though. Does anyone know how they make those sounds near the end right when they show that cutie pie near the end??
The weird sounds and dive bomb sound are made byy a toy custom implanted next to the pickups on russell's guitar. Activated by a switch on the guitar it makes weird sounds and the pickups pick them up and it comes out of the amp as normal.
he's using his tele custom, which has some kids toy built on to it to give the wierd sound effects in the solo. Theres a little button by the volume and tone knobs.
i think the "toy" part is most likely just the chip out of one of those cheap laser gun toys like at toys'rus and walmart... you could just wire it onto the pickup and stuff it underneath the pick guard.. you can hear the distinct sounds from it at 4:44 minutes in... just my 2 cents
has it got something to do with that silver circular thing with picture of the girl on it? Is that the toy? I've been messing around with my guitar lately... ;)

he's adjusting his pedals at 3:18 and 3:37 is a shot of the bassist, not Russell - not to take anything away from how awesome he is
guitar cover comming soon'
the 8 people who disliked this video have no taste at all.
Commerce dressed up as rebellion!!
those two comments were supposed to be in response to other comments on this vid, not sure what happened there.
I'm buying one of thos custom telecasters soon XD
And btw, is that sound not from a pedal??

I'm thinking its just a delay pedal with a short delay time
has it got something to do with that silver circular thing with picture of the girl on it? Is that the toy? I've been messing around with my guitar lately... ;)
that's just the intro though...
the best band in the whole world!!! EFF green day, fall out boy, and all of those generic punk rock bands who make music for fame and money.
Good Song.
Great Performance.
Average at best album.
