The Temper Trap is an Alternative Band from Australia consisting of band members Dougy Mandagi – vocals and guitar, Jonathon Aherne – bass, guitar and vocals, Lorenzo Sillitto – guitar, keyboards and vocals, and Toby Dundas – drums and percussion. The Temper Trap first attracted the attention of the worldwide music industry after playing to sell-out crowds at the Musexpo in London in October 2008, and then at South by Southwest in Austin, TX on March 2009. The BBC chose The Temper Trap in its Top 15 Sounds of 2009. Their album Conditions released June 19, 2009 hitting the top 9 in Australia, top 25 in the UK and top 125 in the US. A remixed version was released on November 1st 2010, called “Condition Remixed” this was the album that I thought was the initial release from a new band, but to my surprise they have been around since 2006 and have released three albums previously. I first heard the single Sweet Disposition in the movie [500] Days of Summer, thus leading me to their current release of Conditions Remixed. Conditions Remixed is full of hefty beats, bass lines, and enough vocal stylings to keep things interesting. Few EP’s have me listening start to finish on repeat, and this one delivers. I highly recommend it, my rating 1 to 5 would be a 5. You can listen to the Conditions Remix EP on the right-side bar under Current Artist.
