Bloc Party Launches Mystery Countdown; New Music Tomorrow?

With no explanation whatsoever, Bloc Party have replaced their official website with a mystery countdown timer set to end tomorrow (July 7th) at 11am GMT (that’s 6am CDT, yanks). The band has been busy in the studio working with producers Jacknife Lee and Paul Epworth on their third album, so there’s plenty of rumors buzzing about what the countdown will reveal. A new track (à la Coldplay’s “Violet Hill” release)? The complete album (à la Radiohead’s In Rainbows)? Just a redesigned website? The most elaborate Rickroll of ‘08? Whatever it is, we won’t have to wait much longer to find out…
