Overview

Like a monkey with a miniature cymbal, get ready to dance over and over and over and over and over. This January, Hot Chip's adding to their Sugar Mountain appearance with headline shows in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane.

Since their second album The Warning ignited floors worldwide in 2006, the British electropop five-piece have delivered one killer LP after another. In 2008 came the velvety Made in the Dark; then, in 2010, One Life Stand brought us yet more flawlessly smooth anthems, followed up by the more-ecstatic-than-Pharrell In Our Heads.

When are these guys ever going to mess up? Keep waitin'. True career artists to the end (as opposed to the wave after wave of 'next big things' often flooding our radio stations), Hot Chip don't release till they're ready. So, Why Make Sense (currently out via Domino) is another cracker, with its blend of funk, punk and bittersweet lyrics.
