Temper Trap, still sounding sweet
The Temper Trap, the Australian band whose 2008 single “Sweet Disposition” is still in heavy rotation on modern rock radio stations, returns with its third album, “Thick as Thieves.”
Fortunately, the new album packs its share of towering anthems driven by singer Dougy Mandangi’s incredible falsetto — many co-written by a stable of high-powered collaborators who previously have worked their magic for the likes of Lana Del Rey, Frank Ocean and Goldfrapp.
The band performs its future hits in a special pre-release show at San Francisco’s Mezzanine.
