'We Started Nothing' is the debut album from The Ting Tings. Tipped in the top three of the BBC's Sound of 2008 poll at the head of the year, seemingly they have much to prove. However, The Ting Tings aren't about proving themselves, they are simply here to enjoy it. Making great British pop music - their way - is what they're about.
'We Started Nothing' is a debut album brimming with intuitive pop nouse. It's pure garage-pop and once heard will in-bed itself into your subconscious for many days, weeks, months to come. Snappy choruses trade off against angular guitar work, whipsmart drumming and a succession of loops that they create live with the use of delay pedals.
A deliriously appealing mix of Go-Gos beat pop, clubbier beats and Katie's grippingly rankled vocal delivery The Ting Tings fashioned their entire album in six weeks at The Mill. It's a rollercoaster mash up of energy, anger and pure pop arousal. "There's nothing wrong with people getting it the first time they hear it," says Jules, "In fact, that's what we want, if we could say there was anything like an intention behind this.
