It’s been nearly seven years since Hot Hot Heat released their farewell album, but between the Canadian indie rockers’ various side projects (such as Left Field Messiah) and the recent 20th-anniversary reissue of their iconic debut LP Make Up the Breakdown, their band name has remained in headlines since then. In honor of that record recently hitting the two-decade mark, the band’s Steve Bays and Parker Bossley honed in on the era in which the album was released when compiling tunes for their episode of FLOOD FM’s “Hacked.”
