Chip’s

Joe
Goddard
will
release
a
new
album,

Today,
he
has
shared
a
Nathan
Castiel–directed
video
for
the
single
“Moments
Die,”
featuring
the
New
York
singer
Barrie.
Other
guests

the
follow-up

Falle
Nioke,
and
Goddard’s
Hot
Chip
bandmates

Alexis
Taylor
and
Al
Doyle.

The
album
was
inspired
by
“this
idea
of
trying
to
divorce
your
conscious
mind
from
the
music-making
process,”
Goddard
says
in
press
materials,
“not
trying
to
force
meaning
on
the
music
or
your
collaborators,
allowing
that
process
to
be
very
empathetic.”
The
new
song,
Goddard
adds,
“features
a
beautiful
vocal
contribution
from
my
friend
Barrie
which
for
me
is
a
highlight
of
my
forthcoming
album.
My
words
were
inspired
by
John
Berger’s
book
‘And
Our
Faces,
My
Heart,
Brief
as
Photos.’”
