When Modern Nature toured their last album, 2023?s No Fixed Point In Space, it became apparent to Jack Cooper the band?s main creative force that they were already pulling away from the free, open ended approach they had spent five years working towards; almost as if the music had become so abstract and elasticated, it now had to snap back towards something more structured. As they found themselves naturally locking into more fixed grooves, he realised a new direction had been set. Their new album "The Heat Warps" is the triumphant manifestation of where that new direction took them.

In the aftermath, Cooper?s songwriting, which had become increasingly impressionistic, found a new focus and the idea of making an album that followed a similar path to the last two increasingly seemed somewhat obtuse. The purpose was to forge a radical change. The core trio of him, Jim Wallis (drums) and Jeff Tobias (bass guitar) were augmented by a new guitarist Tara Cunningham.
