DOWNLOAD AND VIDEO: Thomas Tantrum - Why the English Are Rubbish + Work It (Video)
I don't throw the "next big thing" label around a lot because 1. I am not the NME and 2. I am usually wrong. But what the hell, it's Thursday and I am feeling crazy. Thomas Tantrum has all the ingredients to be the Next Big Thing. A self-effacing tune of pop perfection with some French phrases thrown in about being British? Check. A clever first music video with an undeniably foxy and born to be on a magazine cover blond front lady? You bet. Irreverent 3 minute bursts of too-fun-not-to dance-to songs about being young, having fun and raging "against the tantrum"? It's too perfect to not be true. Thomas Tantrum has 4 singles out (cause they're British) and their full length s/t album hit the UK on Monday. It's only a matter of time before some US label grabs em and cocks it up, so grab this tune and marvel at this video and God save the Queen.
