Hot Chip have dropped a new track, ‘Eleanor’, the second preview of their upcoming record Freakout/Release, following ‘Down’. Listen to it below.
“It’s about the world smashing into you, waves crashing into you, all-encompassing pain, and how you have to walk through it,” Alexis Taylor said of ‘Eleanor’ in a statement. “The verses are about separation when families are divided against their will. It’s about strong friends. It’s also about Samuel Beckett giving Andre The Giant lifts to school, and about how Beckett must have learned a lot from Andre’s wisdom.”
Freakout/Release is set to arrive on August 19 via Domino.
