Made in The Dark is the amazing and ambidextrous follow up to the massively acclaimed debut album.

The new album is the definitive Hot Chip record and could have been made by no other band.

Faster and rockier than the first album, there is rythmical chaos within its 13 tracks with tracks like Bendable Poseable, and soulful introspection in We're looking for a lot of Love and Made in the Dark, and even contemporary widescreen pop in the form of Ready For The Floor and One Pure Thought.

The songs are rythmical, methodical, intimate, beautiful and uniquely Hot Chip.

As last yeart's Mercury award nominated album The Warning proved Hot Chip have an uncanny skill for creating widescreen pop music that pushes the boundaries of what music can be.

And Ready for the floor - the first single to be taken from the new album, is no exception.

To mark the release of their new album, the band will be taking their live show all over the UK - calling at Newcastle University on February 27.
