Good news Bloc Party fans. The band has signed to Frenchkiss Records, proving that they have not broken up, regardless of what the media says. Bloc Party frontman Kele posted the following message on their website this morning:

Hello Internet

It is with great pleasure that i would like to announce to the universe that Bloc Party have now signed to Frenchkiss Records. This signing has made Bloc Party very happy because not only do we know and love the people at this label but we know and love this label’s output. Frenchkiss has released some mighty fine music over the years, music that has gone on to influence this very band.
