    Silent Alarm is dance rock, but highly caffeinated.

    Occasional flashes of brilliance transcend the deja-vu pastiche. [Apr 2005, p.113]

    Removing the formulae and sensual stimuli from the Party leaves little that’s substantive or innovative. Even the most cursory of examinations would show the group to be an “it” band and not much else. However, Bloc Party’s absurdly good at being an “it” on Silent Alarm.
