Hot Hot Heat.

“You are my only girl but you’re not my owner,
girl.” Canadian happy new wave post-punkers Hot Hot Heat have now been added to
my Christmas wish list. They’ve been compared to Elvis Costello and the Cure,
but I’m happy listening to them without thinking of who they sound like. I have
been hopping to “Oh, Goddamnit,” “Bandages,” “Talk to Me, Dance With Me” and “In
Cairo.”




Paging Tower Records. Please have this
ready for pickup on my next visit.

Another baby on my
list:




If only for the title. But the music is
harsh and sweet, just the way I like it. And I really dig those polka
dots.
