Bloc Party has chosen Mogami Premium Guitar, Studio Accessory and Microphone cables for string of festival and headlining tours

After a long hiatus, several side projects and a solo album, the four members of British indie rock band Bloc Party regrouped in NYC last year with producer Alex Newport (Death Cab For Cutie, The Mars Volta, At The Drive-In) to record their first album since 2008’s ‘Intimacy’. Following this summer’s release of their latest album ‘Four’, the band finds themselves back in the charts and on a world tour with Mogami ‘Cable for Life’ packaged cables.

HHB Communications supplied the band with Mogami Premium Guitar, Studio Accessory and Premium Microphone cables for a string of festival and tour dates that brings them across Europe, America, Japan and Australia, including performances at Pukkelpop, Lollapalooza, Ibiza Rocks and three sold-out headline shows at NYC’s Terminal Five.

Bloc Party guitarist Russell Lissack comments: “I really didn’t pay much attention to my cables until I started using Mogami. I am surprised at the amount of stress you can put on them night after night without losing any signal or breaking the cable, and they are very transparent.”

The Mogami 2524 Premium Guitar Cable utilises a high-density shield and conductive PVC layer to eliminate handling noise. This shielding, combined with an oxygen free copper core, allows the true tone of the guitar to ring through. Mogami Microphone and Studio Accessory cables use the same high-quality oxygen free copper core combined with a balanced quad structure that reduces electromagnetic induction, which results in a very high-quality, low-noise, transparent and accurate cable.

Mogami cables are truly a ‘Cable for Life’, backed by a lifetime warranty. The cables and connectors are hand soldiered rather than crimped, and they are made from Mogami’s high-quality bulk cable and assembled in the UK with packaging comprised of 90 per cent recycled materials.
