The first time that The Hot Pockets came together was back in 1998. May, to be precise. Ever since then they've tried to record as much as possible; whenever they had a change to lay their hands on a 4 or 8 track recorder they locked themselves up in the old Bunker in Groningen and recorded whatever was on their mind.
In 1999 The Hot Pockets actually went in to a "studio" and recorded 18 songs of which 13 would come to be their debut album 'Mess Of Fire'.

What follows here is an ultimate recordings listing, a complete list of everything we have ever recorded, when, where and how, and who wrote it, who recorded it and has it been released yet.

On all the recordings so far the Hot Pockets were:
Robert van der Giesen - Guitarplayer and Vocalist for the Hot Pockets Adam Gollner - Leadguitar and Vocals for the Hot Pockets Martin de Ruiter - Drummer for the Hot Pockets Gerhard Rinsma - Bassplayer for the Hot Pockets
