Hot Hot Heat-No, Not Now [mp3]
What was the reason for the change in sound when you guys went from screamo to dance punk?
We like to believe that we transcend the limitations of being in a specific genre, but understand that people are going to label us.
Do you mind that your music was used on a sports video game?
No, it was pretty cool actually.
If your music was an ice cream flavor, what would it be and why?
Dulce De Leche, because it tastes good, you eat too much, and at the end you wanna puke a little.
Who does the bulk of the songwriting and what process do you guys use to create the music?
We all share in the song writing. We spent a lot of time writing on the road. Songs usually start with one person bringing in an idea, a skeleton of a song, and then we all flesh it out.
Do you prefer the Cure or Echo and the Bunnymen?
Jesus and Mary Chain
No, Not Now is one of my favorite songs of all-time, but I never understood what the song meant, please explain?
Hard to put into words, we feel the music video expresses the music visually quite well.
