"Chi-Town" is the first single taken from the fifth studio album by British indie rock band the Cribs, released in February 2012. The song was the band's first new material since "Housewife" in August 2010, and later found release on fifth LP In the Belly of the Brazen Bull in May 2012.
BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe premiered the track, playing it three times on his show one evening, and "Chi-Town" was immediately released as a free digital download on a variety of music news websites. Recorded and mixed at Electrical Audio studio, Chicago with engineer Steve Albini, the song received mastering treatment in Sterling Sound, New York City from Greg Calbi.[1]
