I think Hot Chip are amazing! They're definitely headed for superstardom with their 'Made in the Dark' LP, ok I think the album is hit and miss in my own opinion, especially the slower songs, yeah I really liked the song 'Colours' from their last album 'The Warning' but here, I don't like them, excpet 'One Pure Thought', that has both an amazing beat and a brilliant pop-art print based video that helps too.

However, I am surprised after 'Ready for the Floor' that they didn't release the better songs on the album as singles, like 'Hold On', 'Out at the Pictures' or the sending up of Justin Timberlake, 'Shake a Fist'

Hold On - Live on Later with Jools Holland


Don't you just love the whole 'Sounds of the Studio' game/bit thingy?
