I’ve been split on the two tracks we’ve heard from Hot Chip’s fourth LP One Life Stand. I really enjoyed the sweet, melancholy side that we saw in “Take It In“, but I wasn’t impressed with the album’s eponymous first single, or its video.
But now that the album has leaked (whoops!), we have a few tunes to listen to via YouTube, my favorite of which was “I Feel Better”, a strings-fueled, very much Made In The Dark-like ballad of epic proportions. If you ever needed convincing of Hot Chip’s ability to still wow your socks off while slowing it down, this is it.

WOOOW AMAZING BIZARRE VIDEO,I LIKE IT WITH THE LASERS BEAMS AND EVERY THING AND THE MUSIC ITS VERY GOOD FOR DANCE GOOD WORK BOYS–MY FAVORITE VIDEO IS GOLDFRAPP VIDEO ROCKET-WHAT A PRETTY MUCH BEAUTIFUL SINGER,I LOVE GOLD FRAPP ,WITH THAT EXQUISITE BODY AND GREAT LEGS ,I LOVE HER
this is wonderful x.
I love how it took me several plays to realize that I wasn’t listening to Madonna – La Isla Bonita but the new Hot Chip
Really? I don’t think they’re very similar.
i think the chord progression on the Chorus is very La Isla Bonita-ish. I think the band has admitted as much
gosh, this song is perpetually getting better as it goes. and with every listen too! I can’t wait for the album to come out.
The album is fantastic! You’ve got to listen to it all.
hmm, I don’t know what to think about this. I guess I’m just waiting for the Shake A Fist’s and the Ready For The Floor’s of One Life Stand.
it’s alright…
I like when they keep it simple when they slow down. There’s too much going on here. If you’re going to use all these sounds, why don’t you create a banger?

track of the decade. track to end all tracks.
now that Stereogum talks about ‘Madonna – La Isla Bonita’ in reference to this track, do you agree with me?

I have a feeling they said that BECAUSE of your comment. Now look what you did Moyetes!
it’s pretty good, Take It In is still my fav track so far though, will give album a listen now though.
and i agree One Life Stand (song) isn’t that great
