A Weekend in the City is the second studio album by Bloc Party, which was released on 5 February 2007. The album was produced by Jacknife Lee. The album cover is A Modern Project by Rut Blees Luxemburg. This album deals much more with normal day working life than was addressed on Silent Alarm, drawing themes from the 7 July 2005 London bombings, immigration, drug abuse, Black British lifestyle, and criticism of youth subculture and casual sex.
