Background

Hot Trip to Heaven exchanged much of the band's former gothic alternative rock sound in favor of a hi-tech electronic, ambient direction. The incorporation of dancier elements—especially evident in the lead single "This Heaven"—largely worked against the band commercially, despite their ever-present psychedelic focus. This resulted in the album alienating much of their core college rock audience instead of attracting new listeners.

Love and Rockets would return to guitar-based alternative rock on their next album, 1996's Sweet F.A., before further exploring electronic music on their swan song, 1998's Lift.
