Make Up the Breakdown
Maybe it's because they're from Canada and
don't know that music here in the U.S. is supposed to suck,
but Hot Hot Heat manages to put it all together like no other
band around. Mixing new wave, post-punk and danceable beats,
HHH defies categorization and somehow makes it hip to dance
again. Throw in a lead singer who sounds as if he's had fourteen
cups of coffee and a plug on a helium balloon and you have amazing
frenetic pop that all at once makes you want to bang your head,
shake your ass and play the air keyboard. We can only hope that
Americans quit treating our neighbors to the North like the
no-culture, neutralists that they are and embrace this album
for all the fun and artistry that it embodies. |
