The Temper Trap – Conditions

This has to be the best debut album for a band I’ve heard in a long time.  This Australian band has something fantastic – an album where the songs don’t all sound the same.

That may sound strange, but having looked at a few albums to put on the site recently, I’ve just got bored with the same -iness (is that a word?)

This album/band is a  great mixture of rock, a little bit of INXS, a touch of Coldplay, a little bit of Erasure in one of the songs and a lot of brilliant natural talent.

The album is released on August 10th 2009 – can’t wait.  Update: Love the music so much have just bought 2 tickets to see them live in September on their UK tour!

Turn up the volume to listen to this album.  Current favourite tracks are Love Lost, Fader and Fools.
