Hot Chip Announce New Album ‘A Bath Full Of Ecstasy’

Check out lead track 'Hungry Child'...

Hot Chip will release new album 'A Bath Full Of Ecstasy' on June 21st.

The band have decided to shake things up for their third album on Domino, handing production duties to an outsider for the first time.

Recorded in Paris and London, their new album was shaped by Philippe Zdar (who has worked with Cassius and Phoenix), and Rodaidh McDonald (who is lauded for his collaboration with Sampha and The xx).

Out on June 21st, 'A Bath Full Of Ecstasy' is led by an ambitious lead song, with 'Hungry Child' stretching out beyond the six minute mark.

It's a fascinating, perplexing return, plugged into club culture while also affording Hot Chip space to refine and experiment with synth pop songcraft.

The video for 'Hungry Child' is online now – directed by Saman Kesh, it features Martin Starr and Milana Vayntrub.

Tune in now.
