Temper Temper, Temper Temper
Well, well — it’s another dance/punk almost-but-not-quite electroclash band that’s made it big. How big? O.C. big, which means everyone will be listening to their hot-on-the-heels of Bloc Party dance floor-swagger rock. Some tracks on their self titled debut, like “Terror Tongue in Cheek” are pretty solid dance tracks that aren’t as meticulous as The Rapture, but others, like “Trust Me,” turn into a sloppy Hot Hot Heat. Good to put on the background of a party, but really not all that fun or original.
