They Came From The Stars I Saw Them: The Hot Inc (This Is Not An Exit) A brand new single on seven (and 12" with mixes no doubt) inches of of bouncy sub poonk-funk with with an spangly, elasticated bass, rumbling tribal drums and horn blasts. Sounds like Pigbag or Maximum Joy coming from this century's mutoid pop configuration. The boys in the office are rather taken with this. The flip comes over like a less dirty Gramme, all dubbed out funk theatrics and mangled guitar breakdowns. Probably single of the week in a parallel Norman Brained World-which is not the world you'd not want believe me!

What the label says:

‘The Hot Inc’ positively beams from the speakers, driven by a hectic drum shuffle and wobbly bass, and blossoming into an addictive mesh of solid-gold vocal harmonies, electronic blips and bleeps, hoarse clarinets and repeat-after-me lyrics which lampoon our obsession with what’s hot and what’s not, our gullibility and our cynicism. Think Talking Heads and James Chance enjoying a jam session overseen by Conny Plank (or something). It’s catchy, witty, exuberant and is probably already No.1 in heaven! The Stars are Giles Narang, Dan Hayhurst, Naomi Auerbach and the super-animated, prodigiously quotable Horton Jupiter, who was, among a million other things, a member of Pulp “for one day”. The band’s incandescent, shambolic/shamanic live shows have won them an ardent underground following, and their famous fans include James Murphy, Jarvis Cocker and Carl Craig, but it’s only a matter of time before the whole world falls for their charms. ‘The HOT Inc’ and We Are All In The Gutter find the cosmic-minded quartet at the peak of their musical powers, producing trippy, party-minded and life-affirming pop music that will essentially make your life better.
