I saw the Ting Tings at SXSW this year and they were so freaking good. Every song is catchy and unique. So glad to see these guys succeed after their previous rough start with another band. As the White Stripes proved in the past a good drummer and a kick-@ss singer are a great way to just get to the heart of a song. Highly recommended for fans of no-apologies pop.
Why I love Brits June 11, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The Ting Tings are the epitome of the fun and funky British pop. They've been in heavy rotation on my Ipod - I dare you to hear 'Fruit Machine' and not want to sing and dance along. What's it about Brits that they have such fun bands, and make pop music that doesn't sound cheap or embarrassingly mindless? Just for comparison, if you liked Lilly Allen, you should like The Ting Tings.

My new favorite album. Take the White Stripes and reverse the roles. Add in some Devo, electrified disco and Cibo Matto. This album is a blast.
Funky good summer album for hanging out. May 23, 2008 2 out of 9 found this review helpful
I sort of like it. Similar to other recent groups on the scene. Almost a Pop feel to it rather than alternative.
Truth in labeling July 7, 2008 2 out of 10 found this review helpful
Let's get out the scales. On one side we'll place the Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Dave Clark Five, The Yardbirds, The Hollies, The Animals and The Kinks. That's the first wave of the initial English Invasion. Now they (that's the infamous they) are talking of another invasion. So here we go to the other side of the scales with Duffy, Leona Lewis, Amy Winehouse, Adele, Lily Allen and these guys.
C'mon now, get serious. Aside from maybe 2 songs The Ting Tings album is filled with easily forgetable music. All of these new invaders are. Yet those from the first invasion are still in our musical ears and mind. Five years from now who is going to be able to name a couple songs from any of the new wave invaders? No one.
Start forgetting early and skip this album. The title of this LP is so greatly apropos.
