Before us stands the bookish wing of the Britpop revolution return, refined and cultured in contrast to the Monkeys’ gruff Sheffield charm. Bloc Party’s second coming has been fairly underwhelming and although ‘I Still Remember’ works better away from its poor parent album, it still lacks any real spark. Arch swots MP (I mean c’mon, umlauts?) are full of spark, although they don’t appear to have moved on from the jerky synth pop of two years ago. Progression, eh? Damned if you do, damned if you don’t, poor sods.
