Something in the Engine reviewed on Indie Launchpad
Colin Meeks of Indie Launchpad has posted a lovely review of our new album. You can find it here:

Colin has been a supporter of the band since the early days, so I was a bit nervous about sending him the new album - what if he didn't like it? Fortunately Colin enjoyed the album - check out the review to find out why.
Cheers Colin!

World domination at last! (Sort of)
Hotrod Cadets are taking over the world!
OK, not quite. But Dave Coverly's excellent Speed Bump cartoons are syndicated in a couple of hundred newspapers across America, and also on Yahoo Comics.
And on 31st August, Dave's new cartoon features a shameless plug for Hotrod Cadets! (The guy in the middle has a Hotrod Cadets T-shirt on)
Dave has been a supporter of our music for a long time, and it's such a thrill to see us mentioned in one of his cartoons. Thanks Dave!

Hotrod Cadets @ Liquid Ship, Glasgow
Woohoo! We've got our next gig booked.
We'll be playing some songs from our new album Something in the Engine on Friday 8th August 2008, at the Liquid Ship in Glasgow.
It's a great wee venue with a lovely friendly atmosphere. Dochan runs the "Free Candy Sessions" there, and on the night we'll be playing with Jennifer Concannon and First Tiger.
We played Liquid Ship a while ago and it was a really good night. If you can make it, please join us on 8th August to hear our music "in the flesh"!
Entry is free, and doors open at 8PM. You can get some tasty pub food upstairs before the gig, and they have excellent gin! Bring your friends.
See you there!
