DESCRIPTION:
Hot Karate's latest album Finger Food is their third release in just three years, a continuing evolution following 2011's self-titled LP and 2010's Moonlight Horchata. Driven by gut-punching passion, Hot Karate -- vocalist/bassist Cyrus Ghahremani, guitarist Rob Krauss and drummer Adam Subhas - wrap their hook strength in a technical prowess that doesn't drown us in Yes/Rush-isms while making our heads spin with kaleidoscopic variation. It's progressive without the math-rock nerdgasms and testosterone baths of prog's past, and melodically captivating in ways that carve a new groove in the mind of attentive listeners.

Check out an exclusive studio performance of "Demi," an outrageously explosive track that feels like a spaceship burning up as it re-enters the atmosphere at 10,000 mph.
