"The music is witty, poppy and danceable. Hot chip bring their own style with these immediately-infectious tunes. i had a good inclination this new album would blow that one away upon hearing lead single "ready for the floor", which just builds with brilliance. "one pure thought" was my other top ..." [+] Reply
"Dark and disturbing at times. Very serene at others. Somewhat challenging listen, but worthwhile. Sort of GY!BE-esque." Reply
