Jenny 2 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 post Share on other sites
TheLizard 1 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 post Share on other sites
MuzikTyme 0 Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 They aren't bad but I fail to see the "retro" connection. Link to post Share on other sites
invisible_r 0 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 post Share on other sites
Levis 6 Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 I hear it more in Shut Up And Let Me Go. That's retro awrite. Link to post Share on other sites

Earth-Angel 0 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 post Share on other sites
Farin 2 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 post Share on other sites
