| Hot Hot Heat - Make Up The Breakdown |
In May of 2002, Hot Hot Heat headed into Vancouver's Mushroom Studios to record a new full-length with NW recording legend Jack Endino. The result, Make up the Breakdown, shows a seemingly effortless ability to craft melody, the kind that doesn’t merely get stuck in your head, but that moves in, puts down roots, starts a family. Paul and Dustin tenaciously lock into a groove with Dante's guitar playing bringing to mind a young Johnny Marr, and lyrics and keyboard lines tumbling urgently from Steve. Make up the Breakdown replicates the breathless excitement of the band’s live show; 10 tracks of complex, rhythmic art-punk. Most of these songs have to do with sex and/or the frustrations of life in “this town.” And, really, what’s more important? More than New Wave revivalists with an innate talent for catchy songs, Hot Hot Heat blend angular post-punk twitch with danceable pop, (finally) making a good case for white dopes on punk to get on the good foot.

| Hot Hot Heat are one of the "IT" bands right now it seems. I can't turn the radio on these days without hearing "Bandages" blasting out of the speakers. But there's a reason for that. These guys play rock and roll that you can actually rock out to. The keyboards give it a very nice touch as well. Buy this if you're a fan of sing-a-long rock music. |

| Ah ah ah, so much fun! What the heck kind of sounds are those? I don't know, but they're fun. A very get-up-and-boogie-the-night-away kinda CD. A current favorite of mine. |

| This is a fantastic CD. Pop-rock with more hooks than a tackle box - yep, it's that catchy. There's even a tidbit of new wave that shines through. Get In or Get Out and No, Not Now are ridiculously good, but nothing on here disappoints. I can't believe that I haven't heard one of their songs in a Volkswagen commercial yet. I can't wait to see how they pull this off live. Great stuff. |
