Why Make Sense [Vinyl]

2015 release from the British electronic/alt-rock band. With Why Make Sense?, Hot Chip restate their intentions as a band and redefine the very things that made them relevant in the first place. It shuns modernist dancefloor tropes in order to flick through the dusty corners of the band's teenage record collections. Alternately jarring and chaotic, pared back, thundering, then pulsating and gloriously mellifluous, the album confidently displays it's influences. Hot Chip remain one of the most unique of modern/electronic rock bands - they are experimental yet accessible due to their ability to attach a catchy melody to their more esoteric musical ideas.
