 Hot Hot HeatElevator Release Date 2005 04 05 Label Record Collection Music Rating:  Hot Hot Heat's breakout album was a model of economy, packing a huge amount of ideas and energy into a svelte ten-song track listing. Elevator, Hot Hot Heat's Sire Records debut, is also pretty speedy, burning through 15 tracks in just under 38 minutes. Tracks like &"Goodnight Goodnight" and &"Jingle Jangle" are nearly as wiry and witty as the band's debut, and there are flashes of Hot Hot Heat's breathless pop brilliance: the panicky opener &"Running Out of Time" and pouty single &"You Owe Me an IOU" are just as hooky and smart as Hot Hot Heat's previous bests. With its choppy verses and sunny choruses, &"Island of the Honest Man" opens up the band's sound and is one of the few tracks (along with &"Elevator" itself) that makes good use of the album's expansive production. Elevator kicks further into gear on its second half, where a string of moody almost-ballads like &"Middle of Nowhere," &"Dirty Mouth," &"Soldier in a Box," and the title track add edge and focus.
