  'Something Glorious' interviews Kele

SomethingGlorious.com, a blog inspired by a song well known around this neck of the woods, managed to secure an exclusive interview with Kele just before Bloc Party's headlining appearance at Chicago's Intonation Festival last month.

As is usually the case with independent blogs, the interview is both insightful and original, focusing on the music and giving Kele plenty of time to lay out his vision for album number two. Read it here. This interview also adds weight to the growing movement that suspects Kele of working for Amerie's record company, after Mr. Okereke delivers yet another speech on the merits of '1 Thing'. (Note: the movement currently consists of me, my Dad and the bloke from across the road who smells of wee. To sign up, contact i_believe_in_the_amerie_conspiracy@gullible.com).


Also, there's an interview with Kele and Matt in the current issue of 'Relevant' magazine, kindly transcribed for your reading pleasure.

Sounds like they will be playing a lot more new songs during the shows in August
 
I couldn't figure out how to post this under the article but I just wanted to suggest Kele put up his old shirts for sale on e-bay and donate the money to a good cause. Maybe he should wait until the next album comes out so the shirts will be worth even more...

Just a thought.
