1. It's true: I have an obsessive personality. There. It's out on the table. That having been said, I have a new favorite song and, of course, it's on super heavy rotation. I can't stop listening to it: Wrestlers by British "electropop" band Hot Chip. A friend sent me the mp3 yesterday and 5 seconds in and I knew I loved it. "Hot Chip formed in 2000, though members Alexis Taylor and Joe Goddard had previously worked together and had been in the same sixth form at Elliott School in London. In an interview, Goddard said that early Hot Chip music was written like sixth-form poetry, with acoustic guitars. However, the band completely changed direction because they got 'so pissed off with it' and decided to try and make the most inane songs they could." Checkout this video for Wrestlers recorded in February at the Highline Ballroom, test drive other songs on their MySpace, listen to a few more songs on Last.fm, and watch this interview on Blender.
