  1. 4.0 |   The Irish Times

    There’s little stunning reinvention going on here, with most of the remixers phoning in their work.

  2. 3.2 |   Pitchfork

    I realize that there's plenty of bands that want to sound like ""Helicopter"", and Bloc Party is no longer one of them-- but Remixed proves that they might want to think different instead of simply thinking bigger.

  3. 3.0 |   PopMatters

    All the wordiness, the clumsy fumbling of Intimacy Remixed, even at its best, can never compare to something like the frantic yelps of “Banquet”, nearly half a decade ago. “I’m on fire!” Kele Okereke once sang. Now he just seems cold

  4. 3.0 |   NME

    With too many unimaginative exercises in four-to-the-floor monotony, this only confirms Bloc Party are in big trouble.

  5. 2.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    In putting their names to this Bloc Party seem to be saying they either don't care about what they ask fans to spend their money on or they don't know much about electronic music. Either conclusion is pretty depressing, but even worse is the apprehension that both are probably true.

Latest Reviews

Taylor Swift  The Life of a Showgirl

Despite a greater variance in beat drops and textural flourishes, the middling mid-tempo The Life of a Showgirl strays even further from the magic Swift's pen once wielded Exclaim

Jeff Tweedy  Twilight Override

Several of Twilight Override’s 30 songs are excellent and almost none of them stumble, yet few of them justify the album's sprawl A.V. Club

Ash  Ad Astra

With all due respect to them, I don’t think that many people had Ash making one of the most joyous, carefree and delightful records of the year on their bingo card. But that’s exactly what they’ve pulled off with Ad Astra. They reached for the stars, and by gosh, they’ve reached them God Is In The TV
