Hot Chip are one of the true wonders of creation. Historically important across the aeons of time.

Florence is just shit, awful, ineffectual, thoroughly untuneful and uninteresting, unworthy of any attention, a sideshow for floundering idiots.

Hot Chip are fantastic. The first band since the Mondays to create something that is totally individual and original. Plus they manage to wrap it all up in really fun pop songs. After New Order and Depeche Mode, Hot Chip are the band I would most like to see at Glasto.

For my sins I do like the 2nd Florence album.

I dunno if these sort of sweeping generalisations do anything much bar give Hot Chip's detractors something to giggle over.

I will rephrase it then. Hot Chip are the 1st band that I have heard since the Mondays that sound totally original and individual.

holy crap this hyperbole about hot chip! They were fun before the flaming lips the other year but that's about it.

The flaming lips absolutely blew them away too, as expected.

To be fair though The Flaming Lips have been going a lot longer than Hot Chip and have a far more extensive back catalogue to call on.Plus they had longer on stage to showcase it and people would have been a lot more smashed by the the time Flaming Lips came on.

that extra hours drinking made all the difference!

But I dont wanna trash hot chip, I really enjoyed them and hope they play again.

    • Bev Craig to win on first round? BET NOW!
    • Have you tried Anna von Hausswolff yet? Great singer, and she's from Gothenburg so guess she'll be extra excited to show her skills, especially after she unfortunately had to cancel her early summer dates.    Different style, but Oklou for me was the highlight of Primavera (apart from Geese), really enjoyable relaxed music.
    • A few bigger acts that did other similar festivals this year but not Truck, wouldn't be surprised to see one or two of these (if they're touring):   Reytons The Streets Blossoms Sophie-Ellis Bextor Rick Astley Scissor Sisters Dizzee Rascal   Truck on the undercard seems to rotate a lot of it every 2/3 years, expect to see some of these (if they're touring): Yard Act Sports Team Sea Girls Pale Waves Fat Dog Peace Swim Deep Courting   Hope Westside Cowboy and Radio Free Alice are booked again and get some bigger slots next year        
    • I read a reliable source saying there's not enough time to stress test and have worked through any major financial decisions between now and then.   So guarantees this budget will just be tinkering at the edges only.
    • Thanks @sisco. Looking forward to it!
