„Ante Up“ – „Hang It Up“ (Listen and know.)

Shake your moneymaker, shake your booty and shake what your momma gave ya.

We are celebrating the second album of The Ting Tings.

Yeah exactly: the guys (Katie White and Jules de Martino) who brought us party anthems like “That’s not my name” or “Shut Up And Let Me Go” back in 2008.

That's Not My Name

Now they bring us their second album “Songs From Nowheresville”. It’s the ominous, difficult second album.

It took them four years. They first tried to record it in Berlin – but they trashed a nearly finished album because they didn’t like the songs.

And now?

We have “Hang It Up” – a nearly typical Ting Tings song.

Hang It Up

They try to experiment more with electro and even ska. I like that song “Soul Killing”.
Especially the “bed sports” sample. :-)

Soul Killing

On the deluxe version you can find “Hands” – they song that was in between the two albums.

Hands

So how is it? I like their experiments. Some songs grow with listening, some really ruin your nerves.

Check it out for yourself!!!
