Bloc Party Unveil 'Passionate' Artwork For New Album

Bloc Party have unveiled the artwork for their new album, 'Intimacy', which is released next month.

The cover features two lovers about to embrace with a passionate kiss – although the sex of either person is disguised.

A digital version of 'Intimacy', the band's third album, is already available via Bloc Party's website. The physical release is out on October 27th.
