One of Calgary's Best...

How To Lose Everything is the bands fourth full-length since their inception in 1999 and easily their most thought out effort. The album opens with a very strong track called "Like Killers" that doesn't quite go as balls out as The Rocket is capable but damn, is it catchy. With the repetitive "Now you're upright" line sung in harmony it gets embedded in your brain. Probably the most complex song is next: "Do The Hustled". If you get through this one then you will be sold on "Cough Me Out". Then the thing I love about this band happens on "Spill It". They pull out some harmonies to save the day on what could have been a bloody awful song and turn it into a hidden gem. I think "This Decade" is a good track but could have been trimmed a bit (it broke the 4 minute mark). See comment on "Spill It". That happens again on "Let's Play In Traffic" ("God, Damn You're Always Right"). They get all frantic on "Trouble" but still make time for some great harmonies and fun. "Call The Wedding" seems like it may have been a last minute contender for the album being slightly different in tone but it adds to Hot Little Rocket's diverse bag of tricks. "Sleep Today" is another highlight with it's metronomic beat and cool, pop feel. Worth the money! Published at Music Emissions
