Hot Chip Played Highline Ballroom, We Forgot And Console Ourselves Via YouTube Clips

If you've taken a peek over at heavy rotation over the past few weeks you've doubtlessly seen Hot Chip's Made In The Dark, along with a rotating cast of four other albums. It is indeed being rotated that heavily -- which makes it all the more infuriating that we somehow slept on the band's show at Highline Ballroom Saturday night. By all accounts the soulful, laptop-enabled dance pop what-have-you crew were on fire; rather than simpy rely on "all accounts," though, we make our way through the YouTubes. First, "Wrestlers," from the new album:

More after the jump:

Here's "Shake A Fist":

And "Touch Too Much"

And, The Warning's "Over & Over":

Made In The Dark is out tomorrow via DFA/Astralwerks. Stream the album at MySpace. Grab MP3here. If you were there, don't rub it in -- for our sakes, but especially for those in L.A.

Yep, really good show despite Felix being under-the-weather. I shot the the "Wrestlers" and "Touch Too Much" clips.

Felix apparently got worse because they cancelled their LA show tonight.
