Seattle sci-f pop genii Hotels continue to receive glowing praise for their latest masterpiece Where Hearts Go Broke. The love continues from wonderful Seattle-based radio station KEXP, where the Hotels’ track ‘Kite Fight’ has been included on the Music That Matters podcast Vol. 137 put together by the very awesome Kevin Cole. Just to add a thick layer of delicious cream to that cake, the track has also been bestowed with the prestigious title of Track Of The Day on Friday’s show, which means it’ll be available for free download from this Friday onwards. Hotels are in excellent company here, with artists such as M Ward, Late Of The Pier, Asobi Seksu and Robyn Hitchcock being featured in the Podcast.
Want more? Where Hearts Go Broke recently charted at No. 1 on KEXP’s Northwest chart and No. 13 on the general airplay chart. If you haven’t yet heard the sonic splendour that is Hotels, first head to the podcast page at the KEXP website to download the podcast and the free track, then head to the HSR Store to buy the album in your format of choice.
