Bloc Party return with new single 'Flirting Again'

Following the rousing response to their much-loved 'The High Life' EP last year, Bloc Party have now returned to share a brand new single.

The new track 'Flirting Again' marks their first piece of new material so far this year, and precedes their biggest headline show to date at London’s Crystal Palace Park on 7th July.

Speaking about the new offering, frontman Kele Okereke said, “"Flirting Again" is about being thrust back into the scene and trying to remember how it all works. It's about trying to appear desirable, whilst at the same time hiding the hurt that defines you. We are all carrying around the various scars that we have accumulated over the years, the heartbreaks that have come to shape how we give love and receive love. This song is about picking yourself up and carrying on.”
