Double Up!*

Pitchfork: Other than the heavy metal influences that you mentioned earlier, are there any new directions or left turns that people might not be expecting?

Alexis Taylor [of Hot Chip]: There's one that is kind of wrestling with the idea of making an R. Kelly kind of slick r&b number, but it maybe ends up sounding more like Randy Newman's "Short People". Maybe that's the strange turn.

Pitchfork: Which song is that?

AT: That's "Wrestlers".

New flava in ya ear!

Hot Chip.

Wrestlers.

*[ED.'S NOTE: Keep an ear out for the R.Kelly nod in the track!]
