Hot Hot Heat will release their third album for Sire Records on September 11, 2007, entitled “Happiness LTD.” While the new album retains Hot Hot Heat’s trademark playful melodies and witty wordplay, Steve Bays says that what started out as a modest, live-sounding effort ending up being the band’s most adventurous and experimental album yet.
