Hot Seconds are a Brooklyn-based indie-rock outfit formed in 2007. Citing a wide array of Brit-pop/rock influences, their sound somehow manages to meld the urgency/street-smart storytelling of The Clash, the aural collage/majestic grandeur of Spiritualized as well as the raw, funked-up, immediacy of Primal Scream, tied together with a love of all things Manchester.
