Coming on kinda like a modern Blondie, the Ting Tings not-so-secret weapon is the vivacious, cover girl-in-waiting singer Katie White, who breathes life into all these songs, most notably "That's Not My Name", "Shut Up And Let Me Go" and the ridiculously catchy earworm "Great D.J.". The other half of the duo – drummer Jules De Martino – is no slouch, and it's often the percussion skills that make dittys like these work.
Again, time will tell if all of this has any future legs. For the time being, though, I can't think of a better disc to usher in the month of June.
