Hot Chip return with new single 'Fire Of Mercy'

Following on from their highly-praised studio album 'Freakout/Release' last year, Hot Chip have now returned to share a brand new single.

The new track 'Fire Of Mercy' marks their first piece of new material so far this year, and sees them team up with Malaysian-Irish producer and songwriter Yunè Pinku for the release.

Speaking about the new offering, the band's Joe Goddard said, “Fire of Mercy’ relates to the central concept of William Blake’s ‘Songs of Experience’ - it bemoans the corruption that inevitably comes from adulthood and longs for a return to the purity of childhood.” Yunè Pinku adds: “Massive honour to work with Hot Chip as they’re huge legends within the electronic world. When they played me Fire of Mercy and asked me to jump on the track, I was thrilled to work with them.”
