FROM THE MORGAN HOTEL
PRESENTED BY PAULINE FREEMAN
"HONEY SKIPPIN'" is released on May 6th on independent label Cherrypopper Records. The album kicks off with the mighty 'Crusin' and from beginning to the end, there is no let up in the charm or swagger of the Hot Sprockets. Their kind of rock'n'roll music is haunted by the ghost of country and blues -- take the good-time revolutionary spirit of MC5, simmer it down to the sounds of Crosby Stills Nash and Young, add some rough-edged Eagles of Death -- wailing harmonicas, twangy vocals, jangly and slide guitars and you are somewhere near the delta rock sonic nugget that is Hot Sprockets' sound.
Two of the tracks from the album featured on the EP "Country Dirt" have already been picked up "Solid Gold" was used on the Bulmers' radio campaign for their Mid-Strength campaign and the anthemic "Sleep Shake", a signature live tune, was featured in the BBC comedy "Off the Hook"
The Hot Sprockets have lived up to their early promise and delivered a mighty debut album "to be listened to in the spirit in which it was made"
