Chips Ahoy

As I've said here before, Hot Chip are one of those bands that, on paper, should entirely float my boat.  In reality, they rarely get me as excited as they should.  This, though, from Hot Chip member Joe Goddard, is entirely lovely and follows a string of great releases on Goddard's Greco-Roman label.  Which is making me wonder; maybe it's Alexis Taylor that's holding them back from greatness and keeping them in the realms of averageness.

They lack a front man, any discernable personality and they sound like New Order strained through a sock filled with warm sweet diarrhoea...

HA!

Like I said, they *sound* like they'd be exactly my sort of thing... no front man, no personality etc, etc. :-)
