My ex was in love with them. I think I only ever liked, no scratch that, could bear a sing called Bandages by them. There was also this band called Star Spangles around the same time she wanked over. Never heard of them since.

hot hot heat are a band that have unfortunately never escaped the shadow of how good their first album was. seriously, that came along at a time when indie rock had started to stagnate. it was an interesting twist with a nice pop sensibility clearly influenced by dance tendencies, and it worked. universally got like >8/10 reviews.

the problem with having a debut that good is it's often difficult to follow, regardless of which direction you take. the loss of more original members over time (dante decarlo in particular) led to the continuing departure from the original decency and further into straight-up middle-of-the-roadness. seriously, this album is so generic. there are none of the endearing idiosyncracies that were so obvious on make up the breakdown.

The Reverend has come to my town several times. To a bar.

He's probably not doing so hot.

I could never get into this band for some reason.
