    The latest release from the group definitely gets your attention by a very diverse base of samples that show a high level - which can be observed even through songs such as "Night And Day" and "Ends Of The Earth".

    Five albums along and Hot Chip continue to outdo themselves, not to mention most of their peers. [Jul 2012, p.111]

    In Our Heads sees them take their craft to its most dizzying heights yet. [No.89, p.54]

    In Our Heads is, at the end of the day, a signal that Hot Chip's masterpiece is still forthcoming.
