Sound the alarm, because Bloc Party’s first Sydney show has sold out, prompting the English indie-rockers to announce a second date.

Just last week we announced that Bloc Party were set to make yet another trip to Aussie shores later in the year, performing their debut album, Silent Alarm, in full. An instant classic upon its release in early 2005, the group quickly became favourites of music fans around the world, with three of the group’s tracks making their way into the Hottest 100 that year.

However it now seems like this news has resonated with fans quite a bit, prompting the group’s initial Sydney show to sell out, and necessitating a new date. So if you missed out on scoring a ticket to the group’s Sydney gig on Friday, November 30th at the Hordern Pavilion, you can rest assured knowing that a second date has now been announced for the night before.

Even still, thirteen years after the record was released, Silent Alarm sounds just as groundbreaking as it did back in February of 2005. Despite the fact that two of of Bloc Party’s founding members are no longer part of the group, the band are set to deliver a series of performances in November that fans won’t soon forget.

Tickets to this new gig are on sale now, so make sure you don’t miss out. Perth, Melbourne, and Brisbane dates are also selling fast, so don’t be alarmed if this whole tour ends up being a sell-out affair.
