Our buddies Hot Chip made a welcome return to Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last night, performing "Don’t Deny Your Heart" (an '80s-licious highlight off their fantastic new album In Our Heads… check out my rave review below) with a little help from Questlove on backup drums. If the album's beyond crazy weird lead single "Night And Day" (or its even wonkier music video) didn't convince you how oddball amazing these guys are, then Alexis Taylor's denim bib half-shirt will surely seal the proverbial deal.
Seriously, look at all the keyboards. It's cat damn Guitar Center in there! True story, the moment my vision insurance coverage kicks in, I'm shelling out for a pair of transparent frames a la Mr. Taylor. That's how in love with the new album I am. I'm listening to "Flutes" at this exactly moment and couldn't even tell you what I'm typing, I'm that enraptured… still! Dare I say it, I thought I saw the eternally composed Questlove crack a smile towards the end. Or maybe he was growling… or wincing. It's hard to tell sometimes.
In any case, the song is great, the album's great… but seriously, what happened to the rest of Alexis's shirt?? Perhaps if enough people see this post… and go buy the album… he can afford to shell out for a complete outfit.
