It's been well documented that digital music has altered the way fans consume songs and albums. For the Ting Tings, that change manifested itself on their second album, a diverse collection that draws influences from TLC, Nancy Sinatra and Fleetwood Mac.

"Traveling for two years, we listened to all our music on MP3 players because we couldn't carry our record collection around with us," the Ting Tings' Jules DeMartino tells Spinner. "We made a lot of our playlists up while traveling and instead of listening to complete albums of bands, we kind of tended to drag two of our favorite tracks in from someone like Fleetwood Mac."


From the second part of the video Interview:

"And we listened to Fleetwood Mac and Tusk and we've kind of got obsessed [with] by them. And it rubbed off..."

"I'd say there was one song cuz our first album there was one song that we got obsessed with that was "Once In a Lifetime by Talking Heads". I think this album was "Tusk" by Fleetwood Mac." / "Played it to death."




So the new album will be TLC meets Fleetwood Mac meets Nancy Sinatra meets Pet Shop Boys meets The SOS Band (Jam-Lewis) -- aka MY kinda album!

Imagine paying $1000 to hear "Don't Dream It's Over" instead of "Go Your Own Way"

Fleetwood Mac helped me through a time of heartbreak. 12 years later, they broke my heart.
