Future Breeds by Hot Hot Heat
Future Breeds is an album by Hot Hot Heat, released in 2010. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 3 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Goddess on the Prairie”, on 2 lists with a best position of #38.
Future Breeds, Hot Hot Heat's fourth album, arrived on June 8, 2010, through Dine Alone and Dangerbird, with Ryan Dahle producing. It was the first record with new bassist Parker Bossley, recruited from Fake Shark – Real Zombie!, lining up alongside singer and keyboardist Steve Bays and drummer Paul Hawley, the core of the Victoria, British Columbia, band since 1999.
The spiky new wave is still intact, Bays yelping over twitchy keys and Hawley's herky-jerky beats, but the grooves wander into odder corners this time. Spin's website previewed "JFK's LSD", the title track and "Goddess on the Prairie", and it was "Goddess on the Prairie" and "21 @ 12" that reached the countdowns. Canadian artist Keith Jones illustrated the package. After touring it into 2011 the band went quiet for years, resurfacing only to call it a day in 2016 with a final self-titled album.
