Jenny Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 I was introduced to them via the Onion AV Club and a recent edition of Entertainment Weekly rated their album a B+. The Ting Tings are a pop band from Manchester, England and IMO, they have a retro vibe to their music. I have only heard "Shut Up and Let Me Go" and I like it. Here are some videos: That's Not My Name Shut Up And Let Me Go Great DJ Don't like this one so much, but you can't win them all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 I tried to get into them a few weeks ago, but I guess they're too disco-y for me, perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 They aren't bad but I fail to see the "retro" connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invisible_r Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 well every time I hear "that's not my name" I think of "mickey" by Tony Basil. so it is a bit retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earth-Angel Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 Sorry, but I saw them live and believed it to be the poorest show and attempt at music I had ever witnessed. And the girl can't play guitar for *%&$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 well every time I hear "that's not my name" I think of "mickey" by Tony Basil. so it is a bit retro I thought of the Flying Lizards' "Money (That's What I want)" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
