Originally released in 2005, 'Silent Alarm' marked a bold debut from Bloc Party and quickly became a landmark album of 2000's British indie rock. From 'Helicopter' to 'Banquet' to 'This Modern Love', 'Silent Alarm' helped define the sound of the 2000's and captured the tension and energy of a generation on the edge of change. Restless and immediate, it still resonates two decades on and remains one of the era's most influential albums. This 20th Anniversary 2CD set includes the original album over two discs featuring rare demos, b-sides, and live session recordings. Also included is a 24-page booklet with never-before-seen personal photos of the band and exclusive liner notes, including a new foreword by producer Paul Epworth - offering a deeper look at the album's creation and legacy.
