The 8th studio album from Hot Chip, Freakout/Release is another dizzying high in a multi-decade career that\’s seen Hot Chip continuing to innovate and develop a rich, resonant song craft. And while they continue to operate at peak form, the album also feels like a new chapter for the group – a collection of flesh-and-blood songs that finds the band reaching into the darkness to emerge as a true creative unit, their gazes fixed positively on the future ahead.
