When someone asks me about Hot Hot Heat, I tell them that they're like the Killers, but with a better lead singer but not as good music. I've seen them in Baltimore, and they played decently live, but they definitely excel on studio albums. "Elevator" is clearly their best album, and I'd recommend it to anyone who likes the Killers, MGMT, the Bravery, or anything like that.

Now, watch a song I personally can relate to, and a great vid: MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
