Hot Hot Heat

Since their 2002 breakthrough album, Make Up The Breakdown, Vancouver's Hot Hot Heat have released a steady stream of infectious and danceable rock singles, armed with a seemingly endless supply of memorable hooks.

When the band began work on its fifth album and first on Dangerbird Records, they decided that a new batch of striking melodies and grooves would only be the tip of the iceberg. The guys placed an emphasis on crafting songs that added something different to their celebrated sound. The end result is the band's most forward-thinking album yet, appropriately titled Future Breeds, out June 8th.

The album is anchored by frontman Steve Bay's addictive, candy-coated melodies that Hot Hot Heat are famous for, but it also includes many of the band's most experimental moments yet. Charged with sonic detail, the collection of songs is packed with unconventional rhythms and quirky arrangements. From the dark, carnival-esque feel of "Times a Thousand" to the frenzy of "What is Rational?" Future Breeds balances danceable, pop melodies with an unfettered and musically adventurous spirit.
