"As we face limitless war and limited jobs, everyone could use an outlet, and Hot Chip’s fourth album offers plenty of great getaways. The combination of exquisite synth-rock, steel drums, and Alexis Taylor’s falsetto will keep you from losing your mind by encouraging it to wander" ("Playlist," Wired, 2/10, p. 41).
