A Bath Full Of Ecstasy 2LP (Color)

Hot Chip’s electrifying seventh album, A Bath Full of Ecstasy, is the groups definitive release, crystallizing the sound theyve become celebrated for bridging euphoria and melancholy with colorful melodies, idiosyncratic vocalizations and pounding electronic pop rhythms. Recorded in Paris and London, A Bath Full Of Esctasy sees the group (Owen Clarke, Al Doyle, Joe Goddard, Felix Martin and Alexis Taylor) open up to a more adventurous and collaborative song-writing process, choosing to work with outside producers for the first time: Philippe Zdar, the French maestro whos shaped the magic of Cassius and Phoenix, and Rodaidh McDonald , the Scot whos collaborated with The XX, David Byrne and Sampha, among others. A Bath Full of Ecstasy is a fresh, invigorating and essential new chapter in the band’s career. The record is a celebration of joy but recognizes the struggle it can take to get to that point of happiness. It is time to get lost in A Bath Full of Ecstasy.
