London electronic/dance band Hot Chip have shared their new single "Freakout/Release".
The song is taken from their upcoming album 'A Bath Full Of Ecstasy', will be out on 19 August 2022 via Domino Records. Pre-order your copy here.
Speaking about it, the band said “Little Gem is about relationships and gardening. We call Lucy [PBE drums and synths] The Emo Gardener. She’d painstakingly cultivate her little greenhouse only to be left distraught when the tomatoes got blight – swearing and weeping by the compost heap. The song is a metaphor for our band's journey. It’s about breaking down, then finding a way around – growing new tunes, cultivating them and sometimes having to start again from scratch.”
The accompanying video, directed by Dylan Friese-Green and Aubrey Simpson, captures the band on the road, crammed into a Nissan Micra, cruising through the English countryside.
