Bloc Party aired a brand new song on radio last night (July 7th) and will release the track - named 'Mercury' - as a single on August 11th.
After the band announced they had something planned for BBC Radio 1 and Zane Lowe's show, the DJ previewed the single for the first time, whilst chatting with the band.
"It's a song we finished a little while ago that we're really proud of so we thought we'd let everyone hear it. I'm still somewhat in awe." Frontman Kele Okereke said to Lowe.
"I think we're making the record I always wanted us to make." Added Okereke, when pushed about Bloc Party's third album. "We're kind of just in the middle of it, we're still writing songs and mixing stuff."
Fans will be pleased to hear that the album (currently untitled) could be released before the year ends.
