HOT MILK's sophomore album, Corporation P.O.P. is an extravagant, uncompromising assessment of the perilous world around us, examined through a sharp British lens that is both witty and universal.
Having studied a politics degree, Han Mee has used that with Corporation P.O.P. – where Hot Milk unleash the pent-up anger experienced en masse around the globe. “I've always felt like a bit of a white knight – it's my duty to save the world somehow,” says Han. “I feel very, very impacted by the world’s issues, consistently. I wanted to be an MEP [Member of European Parliament], that was my dream.”
Despite its global outlook, Corporation P.O.P. is an album that takes root in Manchester and Salford, exemplified by the band’s decision to shoot all of their videos in their hometown. “Newt Gingrich, who was a US politician, once said ‘All politics is local’,” says Han. “I’m trying to look local and be involved locally so I can affect my world. This is how I survive, because the world can feel overwhelming."
“Manchester is the best f'in city in the world,” she continues, getting somewhat emotional, having recently u-turned from a permanent move to LA when Manchester came calling back to her. “We started this band in Manchester, it’s intrinsic to me and who I am. It has to bleed into the art we create, because it helped me create it.”
Produced by the band's own Jim Shaw, with Zach Jones and KJ Strock, you can sense Hot Milk’s killer instinct throughout the record, a result of the intensive writing process and recorded as live album, it offers the band at their heaviest with their raw, unapologetic lyrics which brim with unfiltered emotion.
Snapshotting the gloom of the present and unloading very real fears for the future, the sentiment behind ‘Corporation P.O.P.’ might feel locked inside a time capsule. But fast forward two decades, and time will surely prove why this record carries the hallmarks of something timeless.
Hot Milk will be playing a series of dates this Spring and Summer.
