That single 'not my name' really grated.

Thank god I'm near the end of the Empire of The Sun album. The first half isn't bad but god the second half drags on. Some of the production seems a bit confused on it, and half the time the singer seems to be trying to do a bad Bowie impression, but often sounds more like Annie Lenox.
I see why it's compared to MGMT, but it's not as good. The MGMT album has much more direct fun energy about it, this feels more like a cake where somebody hasn't known when to stop adding ingredients.
To be honest, I might be being a bit harsh. I zoned out from much of the album, but that's partly because it didn't hold my attention at all. I might not have been in the mood for it.

I might get the Ting Tings album now, so I can judge who's right.
I've only heard the single and I can see why it could grate, but I quite enjoyed it. Similar to that Reverend and the Makers song which should grate your face off but is quite fun.

I have the reverend and the makers album and quite like it, the ting tings album may be good too, but i can't get past that irritating single.

Ive become annoyed by them because of the NME's quote that world domination 'literally awaits' for them. I know its not thier fault, its just typical, of NME's hyperbole and very poor journalism. Literally awaits my arse.

I'd be surprised if you haven't knobbed at least one of the Tings Tings.
