the lab review

Indie rock darlings Hail Social are the latest entrants into the ever-expanding, always diverse Flamin' Hotz discography... but with six club dudes from Philly on board for remix duties, you know this ain't no indie rock. And, ok, Designer Drugs don't technically reside in the City of Brotherly Love but their blazing electro remix of "Heaven(1)" more than justifies their spot on this record. (Seriously, take a listen - never heard the original, it doesn't even sound like a remix to these ears.) Plastic Little producer Squid comes correct on "The Fall(2)" with a sound that's half downtempo / half ghettotech, while Benny Brows gets a little funky on his version of "All Night(3)." Sleeper pick comes courtesy of Kilroy with an atmospheric nu disco spin on "One U Love(4)." Also includes remixes from Philly party-starters Crimp Your Hair and Turbo Station. First pressing on purple vinyl; pic sleeve artwork by Thom Lessner.
