Greetings from the Great White North
Dearest friends of Hot Hot Heat,
Greetings from the Great White North! The band and I would like to offer our most sincere apologies for taking so long to finish our most recent recording. The truth is that the delay was for good reasons..! We wanted to re-structure our approach to the band, starting with building a studio where we could do everything together (rehearse, write, record, mix, hang out... and pretty much live), all the way up to the kind of songs we wanted to write, and how we would release them. I had become uninspired by the old school structure of rehearse, write, demo, wait for the label to give you money to record, tour and then do it again in two years. I wanted to record WAY more often, have it sound WAY weirder, and make the demos - the INITIAL ideas- BE the record! So we built the studio (Tugboat Place), I taught myself how to engineer, and we spent months of working/playing till dawn every day... and now we have a new HHH record that is by far my favorite thing we've ever done... not to mention of ton of recorded material that will be coming out later, and a way to be writing and recording constantly..!
So thx for your patience kind citizens of Hothotheatland. As a thank you we're posting two songs, "Future Breeds" and "JFK's LSD," from our forthcoming album titled Future Breeds, for you to download for free on this here new site... Oh and there are vids for each of them courtesy of TheFuturists.ca who filmed 'em for their site. It's basically them hanging with us for 3 or 4 nights here in Vancouver... fly on the wall style.
We've booked some dates for next year, but I'll save that for another love letter. Hope to see you soon...
Steve
