There’s a Hole in our Heart, from not being able to include the Hooters or Hagfish or Hatebreed in these ten selections from the YuppiePunk Music & Mustache Emporium™, but how many people do you really think are looking for vintage Hooters tracks on The Hype Machine anyway? And though we were tempted to make our ultra-rare Hootie Comes Alive double gatefold available in its entirety, we’ll save that for another day. Here now, 10 selections from the vault.

Emily Haines – “Doctor Blind”
This song would be excellent during a montage in a Paul Thomas Anderson film.

Harvey Danger – “Carlotta Valdez”
The Cliffs Notes to Hitchcock’s “Vertigo” set to song.

Heavens – “Heather”
Heather, why do you never answer the phone?

High-Back Chairs – “Share”
The poppiest band to ever feature a member of Minor Threat.

Hi-Standard – “Lonely”
The second-biggest Japanese punk trio ever (hi, Shonen Knife)!

Homegrown – “Tomorrow”
Like a less-funny, less-catchy, less-good blink-182.

Horace Pinker – “South Stanley Place”
They sounded like Jawbreaker even before that band’s bass player joined, we swear.

Hot Hot Heat – “Oh, Godamnit”
Sexy Canadian new wave for the new millennium.

Hot Water Music – “Paper Thin”
Sandpaper vocals + post hardcore = Hot Water Music.

Hüsker Dü – “These Important Years”
The sound of a band breaking up.
