    A white hot album that will leave listeners soaking up every note.

    While the band's resemblance to its forebears is still strong--especially on the standout "Forget," which Hot Chip would be proud to call their own--Boxed In sound more assured than ever as they expand on that legacy.

    Bayston’s brilliant at producing these repetitive but nuanced melodies, most of which knot themselves inside your brain and won’t let go.

    The album’s percussive moments are perfect for sunny festival slots. Elsewhere, ‘London Lights’ is comparatively relaxed, though its slow-burning synth-line stretches into club territory, and the expansive sonic landscape throughout ‘Black Prism’ could be a James Blake cut.
