HEAT - Overnight (Sealed) (LP)

FFO: Echo & The Bunnymen, Merchandise, Velvet Underground. Recorded at Montreal's Breakglass Studio, the recording process was something of a rocky road for the band but the resulting record is a vehement leap forward, and one that looks set to cement Heat's status as one of Canada's most formidable exports. Led by the band's three founding members, Susil Sharma (Vocals, Guitar, Synth), Matthew Fiorentino (Guitar, Synth), and Raphael Bussieres (Bass), Overnight feels resolutely solid; old-school aesthetics delivered with a defiantly fresh-faced outlook. Co-produced by Grammy Award winner Alex Newport, who has worked with the likes of Death Cab and At The Drive-In.
