Disappointing. I had never heard of Hot Chip until 2006's The Warning came along. 'Over And Over' introduced me to the band with a bang, and since then I've been interested in the band. Their follow-up album is closer to the sounds of Coming On Strong than The Warning, meaning that most of the album is a downtempo affair mixed in with some upbeat dance songs. The songs to to fluctuate from infectious ('Bendable Poseable', 'Hold On') to okay ('Ready for the Floor' is no 'Over and Over') to irritating ('Shake A Fist'). I'm still going to give it a chance and hope that it grows on me, but something doesn't feel right with Made in the Dark.
