Product Description
Album Description
10 tracks. Katie White and Jules De Martino needed a name for the "unintentional band" they'd created in 2007. For the sheer fun of it, Katie (vocals, guitar and bass drum) and Jules (vocals, drums, electronics) had begun writing songs together and doing impromptu shows as a two piece. Suddenly, they were generating massive excitement at a series of house parties at Manchester's Islington Mill, a derelict cotton mill from the Industrial Revolution converted into a thriving underground artist collective housing painters, filmmakers, writers, sculptures, musicians and more.

A guilty pleasure Ting,
By Amanda Richards (Georgetown, Guyana) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: We Started Nothing (Audio CD)
This is a fun, funky and successful debut from the hot UK group with the onomatopoeic name. All the songs are original material, written and composed by the fresh and fabulous duo, and it's a great pity that the album is so short.Turn on the radio at any time of the day, and before long you're probably going to hear either of the two really big singles from this album, or both of them. The single "Shut Up and Let Me Go" recently won the MTV Video Music Award for "Best UK Video", the other hot single being "That's Not My Name". "Great DJ" is yet another single, with "Be the One" scheduled for release soon. I recently received some PepsiStuff Points to buy an MP3 download from Amazon, and I had no hesitation in picking "Shut Up and Let Me Go" Most of the tracks are cool, catchy and current, and although you can't honestly say that the lyrics are either deep or profound, you'll remember the infectious beats and at least you'll be able to sing along while you're dancing. Fans of Brit pop will enjoy this album, but there are a couple of tracks that were just a little too trippy for my liking. Other than the singles mentioned above, you should also try "Keep Your Head" and "We Walk". Buy the singles, if not the album, and prepare to shake your groove Ting. Amanda Richards

Easy to underestimate...,
By
This review is from: We Started Nothing (Audio CD)
The Ting Tings are the kind of band that's all too easy to dismiss. Pop sound, beautiful blonde vocalist... must be lightweight. BIG mistake. This is clever, sophisticated, infectious music, reminiscent of bands like Blondie, or the horribly under-rated Transvision Vamp, or the chameleon-like Primal Scream. The Ting Tings bring their own unique rhythmic approach, weaving vocal lines that are sometimes rap-like, sometimes fugue-like, over throbbing bass and complex, mesmerizing percussion. This is mind-stretching, pulse-pounding tribal music for the 21st Century. Crank it up and groove!

This duo have a great sound! Fun, fun music with clever lyrics, and a clever sense of humour. Support indie artists. Buy this album. Very fun, upbeat stuff!
