Yes! I posted about this on face-book like three times because I am a huge fan... Anyway new interviews keep coming out with them talking about this. Katie said they hid themselves away in another country, (sorta like the way Beasties moved to L.A. to discover new ground) She said they locked themselves in the basement and had Paul's Boutique on loop for days on end. She said a lot of the new album is heavily influenced by that album. :cool: Can not wait for the new material to drop!!!

I like the Ting Tings, I'm ever going to see them in concert next month. But... I've heard the new album and it's a big disapointment :(

Did it leak or something? I will wait to hear it on March 6th when it's officially released. I love Hang It Up. I think just listening to them play a live set will be enough for me. They are talented musicians and can play about anything.

ting tings are allright, bit one dimensional. but she's got something and they have a few large tunes but i can see why people dont like as well.
