Artist : Bloc Party
Track : Helicopter

Helicopter is probably the most popular song by Bloc Party. The song can be played in Guitar Hero III : Legends of Rock and can also be heard in the movie Yes Man. Bloc Party can be classified as Indie Rock or Alternative Rock. This track is particularly good because of the fast tempo, great energy and very nice guitar leads. The song starts really quickly with the first guitar riff, then the drum joins and the bass starts to play a very nice part of the rythmic section of the song. Even if the riff is quite simple, it's fitting very well in the song. What I really find interresting are the lead melodies of the guitar. Even if the song is very catchy, there is a lot of different riffs and the energy isn't always the same during the song. There are a lot of variations. Every single instrument as a very important role in the song. Even the vocals brings something quite interresting to the song. Guitarist and lead vocalist Kele Okereke, really takes us where he wants us to go, with emotions in his playing and vocals. An interresting song by an interresting band :)
