Montreal Band Heat have been labelled as a band to watch for 2015, This young quartet is treading on familiar turf, starting with Velvet Underground’s groundbreaking songbook and ending somewhere around the first Strokes record. But it’s rare to see a band this new sound so polished, or able to put their own slack spin on the Waiting for the Man template without coming across as overly fawning.The Sound of Heat is the sound of confusion. Tuneful but tone-deaf; beat-down and blown out of porportion. It’s a neat scotch and a mess of a life. You can find it scrawled on bathroom walls, hastily jotted down on cocktail napkins, deleted from your browsing history, lacing your designer drugs. It’s a couple bedroom demos turned into a Montreal 5-piece rock band, Now here’s the sixty-four thousand dollar question: “Do you remember rock n roll radio?”

Drawing equally from acts such as The Jesus and Mary Chain, Echo & The Bunnymen, and The Strokes, Heat streamline their influences into a mercurial 3 guitar sound. The result is a stream of catchy, dense rock and roll.
