Copper Emerald vinyl. New pressing of Hot Mulligan's, Acoustics Vol. 1 + 2, featuring eight songs from throughout the band's career, in addition to a Taking Back Sunday cover. When HOT MULLIGAN took to social media to declare themselves #1 Hot New Band, it would have been easy to write off the terminally online emo quartet's proclamation as yet another irreverent entry into their bag of tricks. But it turns out Hot Mulligan have a way of manifesting things into existence, whether it's name-dropping Michelle Branch and Mark Hoppus in song titles and netting responses from both (only one got the joke) or, true to their word, becoming synonymous with the newest waves of pop-punk and emo - err, post-emo, the genre Hot Mully have claimed responsibility for inventing. (Go ahead and fact-check it; they'll wait.)
