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.

Sounds Like: Art Brut, the Okmoniks, Be Your Own Pet, the Ting Tings, Duke Spirit
