Description
2022, 2×12″ LP, Domino. Brown vinyl, EU press.
Freakout/Release is the eighth album from UK dance-pop-indie innovators Owen Clarke, Al Doyle, Joe Goddard, Felix Martin and Alexis Taylor, better known as Hot Chip. Now much love favs on record and in the live area for many years, the band still manages to reach new heights with this latest offering. It is a rich and resonating work that marks a new chapter for the group with flesh-and-blood songs that look to the future in all new ways. The album was written on the band’s all-new Relax & Enjoy studio in East London and plenty of inspiration for it is said to have come from their own cover of Beastie Boys’ ‘Sabotage’. – Juno
