Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |

 A sandwich with crispy bread but slimy meat
Submitted on: 2008-09-02 |

| The first two tracks still showed signs off that biting indie dance-pop wit which made their debut so brainy-fun, but the commonplace songwriting lethargy we see consume all but the best of them sooner or later makes an early appearance and helps extinguish some hopes for Hot Hot Heat's evolutionary rate. Flirting with this constant mediocrity brings the disc down considerably, but in the end there seems to be enough zest and production finesse left to fall on the upside of average, finishing relatively strong as well. |

 COLLECTION OF HITS

This album is one of my top 10 albums of all time (and i listen music a LOT). I realized it even more how great this album is after listening to their latest release "Happiness LTD" , this one is WAY better. It doesnt have the identity crisis the later album has (oh emo is the trend, why dont we write emo lyrics too and make some ballads?!?!) no no no, if i wanted to get emotional and listen to some deep, effective, slow music id listen to Coldplay, Elliot Smith, or Bright Eyes, not HOT HOT HEAT.
They are great at doing fun, upbeat songs and they should go on that.
As for this album, it is one of the VERY RARE albums that i dont skip a single track. Theyre all AMAZING, from start to finish. With the first track "Running Out Of Time" youll start dancing and you wont sit until "Elevator" where things go a little slower, (but its still an amazing track)
So if you like fun upbeat, FEEL GOOD music, go BUY THIS ALBUM!!!
If you like Fratellis, Ok Go, youll most likely like this band. |

| Hot Hot Heat is one of the few new bands to pique my interest. Their first release was decent, but "Elevator" is even better. Great tunes, drums and guitars - and, of course, Steve Bays' yelping vocals. There's only three songs I really don't care for - "Pickin' It Up", "Soldier In A Box" and "Shame On You". Looking forward to the next CD! |

| Energy=Hot Hot Heat! this album is full of it, though not just in the album as well as on the stage these four performers pour their hearts out to you and sweat as the play their instruments. With catchy melodies thougout the album, though fast that you have to look at the lyrics to see what exactly he says, you'll be sure to enjoy this alternative' dance album that makes any kid that thinks he/she is to cool to dance, Dance!!, that is all Hot Hot Heat makes you want to dance, besides that, they also have other songs like "elevator" and "jingle jangle" to tone down the album. This whole album comes from all of the emotions of a gone band member, but newly found one, being a great addition, and being in love. So to dance and sing get this album. |

| Elevator is indeed a good album, but I admit it does lack in some areas. The standout songs are Running Out Of Time, Goodnight Goodnight, Island of the Honest Man, Middle of Nowhere, and Shame on You. This album, although sounding like a lot of familiar rock, has this certian edge that only Hot Hot Heat has. But, you have to remember, this was made during a hard period for the band--when a former member left. Overall, though, I do reccomend buying it. |
