Hot Hot Heat, the injury-prone Canadian shriek-pop synthesizers, have themselves a little tour poppin' off tonight (July 17) in the appropriately sweltering Santa Barbara. Paradoxically, they're opening for the frigid Snow Patrol, which sounds to us-- experts that we are on the subject-- like somebody's idea of a bad joke.

Chuckle or not, the Heat will be keeping up temperatures all over most of the U.S. through the next few weeks. They'll then bring the loud loud loudness to Europe for a spell as August turns to September, all the while gathering audiences into the Happiness LTD. fold.
