Hot Chip

1 July 2008 :: posted by Melissa

Hot Chip’s “Made in the Dark” is seriously my favorite album of the year so far. I can’t even explain how much I am in love with the album and you should be too. Let’s talk about which song you love the most, which one makes you feel warm and fuzzy, which one makes you shake the most, which one do you sing in the shower, which one have you coreographed in your head… TELL ME! Ok, I have to settle down. So back to business, they are gonna be touring in September and NO ONE should miss them! Start selling your shit at Buffalo Exchange and get some tickets.

1. Love the album (listened to it ever since it leaked ‘bought the Cd later ofcourse”) but i think ‘Hercules & Love Affair’ shoved it and took its place for me… wish i could see them live or anyone else (who doesn’t suck)… all we get on this side of the world is Alex Gaudino & De La Soul.. meh.

5. Okay, I’ll admit that Out at the Pictures is one of my favorite songs of the year…and I just might have to catch them when they’re here in L.A. next. Speaking of which have any of you ever heard of Robyn? She’s got a similar vibe kinda going on, but more poppish and fun…check her out, http://www.robyn.com
