Let’s just go ahead and admit it; this video is BRILLIANT (albeit, a bit frightening). The first time I saw it, I was like, “This is NOT Hot Chip! WTF sign, you lie!?!”, and then, I was all, “oh. AWESOME”. So yeah, I can’t get enough Hot Chip right now, and this song, the video, AND their new album, One Life Stand are all pretty amazing.
Side Note: Also, as kind of a rant, I WANTED to post this legit, and get it from the band, but this “NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR COUNTRY” bullshit is a crock. Seriously, I am pimping your awesome song and video… for free… on my blog… for free. Why wouldn’t you want that? Whatever, the song is amazing and so is the video. Whatevs. (If, for whatever reason, the video is yanked, check it out here: this is the guy who directed it’s youtube link for the apparently highly classified material, I mean, video.)
And you know what’s even more dumb about that? The video was available for FREE on iTunes last week. Just sayin’.
I’d never heard of Hot Chip until the other day when we first saw this video. At first it was ‘new boy band?’ then it was WTF?
@John: STUPID.
@Robguy: I knew about them, so it was even more of a WTF when I saw the video!! I was totally, “that’s NOT THEM!!!”. LOL.
