desert island disc
it has all of the passion and energy of an amazing punk record, but also has this optimism and love for life that i havent found anywhere else. this is the one cd i would bring with me if i was stranded on a desert island. some hwm fans dont like this cd, but i think it's kinda what you were 'raised on'. this was the first hwm cd i got into, but most got into cds like fuel for the hate game first, which is also awesome. i could fight a war to these songs, and i could stare out at the ocean while listening to them. get it.


rock!
this is the album they put out after they broke up and got back together. 'no division' is a GREAT record. a lot of people don't like it because it's not "as good" as 'forever and counting' and 'fuel for the hate game'. but 'no division' still holds all the energy and passion that hot water music are famous for. while it may not be most fans favorite record, this is just a natural progression for the band. they will only continue to get better and better. repeated listenings of 'no division' will definitely get you hooked. i tell people who haven't heard hwm before to start with this record, because it's a bit more "accessible" than their previous releases. but no album compares to seeing these guys from Florida perform.
if you ever get the chance to see hwm live, GO, you will NOT be disappointed. their live shows make me get all emo and sh!t. . . , it's almost like a religious experience. . .
all i can do is thank chuck, chris, jason and george for making such amazing music that helps me get through my day to day life.
they are one of, if not THE, best band on the planet.
highlights on this album: "our own way", "at the end of a gun", "jet set ready", "rooftops", "it's hard to know", and "southeast first"(featuring the gainesville radical cheerleaders!)
ROCK.


opinion
These are people here. This album hits home if it is communed with. Exposing themselves. Speaking about what they've seen, thought, heard. That's part of what artists do. Humble, hearty, and handsome folks. They don't need designer or name brand clothing. The realization that life is beautiful in it's natural state leads to the earth and a renaissance balanced of tomorrow and yesterday seems in order today.


Amazing band
They have an awesome sound, write catchy yet powerful songs, and have not put out a bad album yet (and they have quite a large discography). Hot Water Music is a band that totally blows me away. Songs such as "At the End of a Gun" are quite poppy and melodic, but for the most part, this is intense emo and punk influenced ROCK. Every song on here stands on its on, and the choruses are great. The vocals on here aren't as gruff as on their earlier discs, but they still have that distinct sound. My only complaint is that the production took some of the punch out of the songs, but at the same time the instruments sound a lot clearer than they did on earlier HWM releases. If you like energetic, positive, creative rock that will leave you singing along in no time, this album is a must.


Very Powerful! Very Good!
Hot water music is one of the best emo-core bands. Personally No Division is my favorite HWM album. Hot water music gives you a good feeling deep inside. very moving. a must have cd for everyone. Everyonr should get a chance to see them live because they are great! lots of energy and emotion. Hot water music a great song writing ability. They are on the Warped tour this year so try and get to see them if you can.
