Why Make Sense?

by Hot Chip

Why Make Sense? cover art

Infusing their trademark nerd-disco sound with live instrumentation and warm R&B textures, the London quintet delivers a tight, remarkably consistent sixth album. The production heavily incorporates vintage synthesizers and elements of Chicago house, serving as a dynamic foundation for Alexis Taylor's tender, vulnerable vocal delivery. Notably, the physical release utilized an algorithm to generate over 130,000 unique color variations of the cover art.
