Their debut album made the music critics' ears prick up and since then Bloc Party's unique indie-rock sound has attracted a loyal, if varied, fanbase. It therefore shouldn't come as a surprise that their October tour of the UK has almost sold out including Bloc Party Tickets Bournemouth. Bloc Party tickets for their gig at the Bournemouth International Centre are in such high demand that organisers had to shift the performance from the Solent Hall to Windsor Hall. Tickets are still available, but only just.

Why Bloc Party tickets Bournemouth are so popular
For starters, Bloc Party are hard to pigeonhole and the quartet's appeal is vast. Emo kids, indie grungers and punk rock fans have been drawn to their mix of synth and harsh guitar. Fans can expect the band's Bloctober tour to feature songs from their critically acclaimed first album, Silent Alarm, as well as A Weekend in the City, and new material from their surprise album Intimacy, which was released without pomp or pretence in 2008. There'll be the instantly recognisable tracks - Helicopter, Mercury and Like Eating Glass, as well as the anthemic Ion Square.

Overnight Success
Bloc Party burst onto the scene in 2005 and received instant acclaim in the music industry. Their new brand of indie punk also made a connection with the record-buying public and their debut album, Silent Alarm, went platinum after only a year, and made NME's album of the year list. Just over two years the band's second album, A Weekend in the City was just as well received and they soon began touring abroad - in the US, New Zealand and Australia - as well as performing at some of the UK's biggest festivals such as Glastonbury, Leeds and Reading. Chances are you've been bending your hips to them and recommending them to your mates for ages so when you look at it like that it's no wonder Bloc Party Tickets Bournemouth have proved so popular already.

Intimacy Gets Electronic
Their third album, Intimacy, marked a diversion from the norm, with a more electronic sound than their previous material. Its release was also a surprise, and the band announced it only days before it was made available on iTunes. In such a short period of time the band have carved quite a career, so grab Bloc Party tickets Bournemouth now to get your own personal slice of their history.

Fantastic Venue
Although the performance won't be quite as up close and personal as it would have been in the Solent Hall (which has a capacity of just 2,000), fans who are lucky enough to get Bloc Party tickets Bournemouth will still benefit from an intimate show. Bournemouth International Centre has a 5,000 capacity, so it's nowhere near as overbearing and anonymous as the other stadiums and festivals Bloc Party have played.

Bloc Party are performing at the Bournemouth International Centre from 6.30pm on 31st October. To buy tickets, click on the link below.
