Matt chats to Austinist
Read an interview with Matt for Austinist here, ahead of Bloc Party's September appearance at the Austin City Limits festival.
"The funny thing was, we pretty much had the album ['A Weekend In The City'] we wanted to record when we got to the studio. We hadn't written enough material for B-sides, and had to go back and prepare additional material some time later. Pretty much all of the B-sides were done in a two-week period last September, which amuses me, since I'm aware some of those songs already have a pretty cultish following. It's all good. If anything, it's shown us that maybe we can be a little more instinctive about our decisions in the studio and work quicker than we have done in the past. I think this is an attitude we want to embrace when we start work on our next album."
