Hippo Lite is the second studio album by duo DRINKS, which is made up of musicians Cate Le Bon and Tim Presley.
Musically, Hippo Lite digs its heels into avant-pop and "first-rate" experimental rock, but especially post-punk sounds that range from "abstract [and] harsh" to "quiet" and "playful".
[1][5] Hippo Lite was welcomed with generally positive reviews upon its release.
[7] Matthew Hogarth for DIY applauded it, noting its "moments of sheer chaotic genius married with brilliant songwriting".
