Hot Hooves - Fake Modern Art artwork

New Hot Hooves album out 30 November, preview tracks to be streamed online

Toasty Feet Blazing Paws Hot Hooves have been described previously in these ‘ere internet pages as fearlessly confident, with a sense of melody and aggression that manifests itself in no end of catchy, succinct and memorable songs.

Their second album, Fake Modern Art, is due to be released on 30 November through Rivet Gun Records, and will be available in all the usual ways (ie online, in Truck Store, by hassling members of the band at gigs, and so on). From 19 November until the release date, though, Hot Hooves will be streaming one album track a day via their Facebook page. It’s a ten-track album, true to the band’s stated aim to release one ten-track album a year, once a year for a decade, in a similar escapade to that which Felt did throughout the 1980s. (If you don’t know who Felt are, look ’em up, and thank us for educating you).

Fake Modern Art will be launched with a gig that’s taking place on 29 November at The Cellar in Oxford. Hot Hooves will be supported by X-1 and Yellow Fever, and as if Facebook don’t already have enough links to their site on the internet, here’s another one: Facebook event.

    I’m looking forward to the LP very much.

    But the top Recommended Link below this article is for a “Sexy Chicken Coop”: are Hot Hooves into bestiality? Is that band name an example of this “hiding in plain sight” that I’ve heard so much about…?
