A Long Way From Kansas is Hot Chip's ninth studio album, taking its title from The Wizard of Oz and following 2022's Freakout/Release.

It was recorded at Joe Goddard and Al Doyle's Relax and Enjoy studio in East London and features Beth Ditto and Eddie Chacon. Lead single "Random Violence" pays tribute to the late Optimo DJ Keith McIvor (JD Twitch). The album is out January 8th, 2027 via Domino.
