First we thought Bloc Party were gone for good, then they returned with a new single last week and now our sneaky suspicion about fifth album Hymns has been confirmed. 

Following a three year hiatus, the band released trippy synthy number 'The Love Within' (listen above) last week, the first track with new members Justin Harris and Louise Bartle. 

Planned for release on Friday 29th January 2016, the record features eleven tracks from the indie disco kingpins with three UK dates rubber stamped in the run up to Christmas. 

UK dates below: 

Glasgow, 02 ABC - Monday 9th November 

Manchester, Albert Hall - Thursday 3rd December

London, St John at Hackney Church - Friday 4th December
