Hot Hot Heat announce 20th anniversary edition of ‘Make Up The Breakdown’
Hot Hot Heat have announced a 20th anniversary edition of their debut album ‘Make Up The Breakdown’.
Released in 2022, the acclaimed first full-length project from the Canadian band was produced by Jack Endino (Nirvana, Soundgarden, Sonic Youth) at Vancouver, BC’s Mushroom Studios. NME hailed ‘Make Up…’ as “joyously bold [and] emotionally rounded” in a glowing review.
It added: “It’s a record that shakes all preconceptions from the tree, and should be talked about in hushed tones by self-congratulatory, music aficionados 20 years from now.”
Now, Hot Hot Heat have shared news of a remastered and expanded version of the album to mark its two-decade milestone. It’ll arrive on December 2 via Sub Pop – you can pre-order/pre-save the collection here.
We are celebrating the 20th Anniversary of our debut album Make Up The Breakdown with the deluxe treatment. Newly expanded! Newly remastered! AND back on vinyl!
Out worldwide on 12/02/2022
