Hot Chip release new single “Freakout/Release” the third cut from their upcoming new album Freakout/Release, out Aug 19.
Talking about the song, Alexis Taylor said:
Freakout/Release is about pent-up energy and the need for release, and escape. It’s also about making sense of music, and at times being plagued by the thing you focus on – music never leaves my head for a second, which is usually a good feeling, but it can feel claustrophobic at times too. It’s also about finding your place in relation to music and to performing. The riff should feel brutal and dumb and elemental and Joe was thinking about Seven Nation Army and the simplicity of that swinging from quiet to loud and back and forth.
Hot Chip are Owen Clarke, Al Doyle, Joe Goddard, Felix Martin, and Alexis Taylor.
