The Temper Trap today announce their stunning second album, ‘The Temper
Trap’, due for release on [PIAS] Recordings on 21 May. The record will
be the band’s first as a newly-expanded five-piece outfit following the
permanent addition of Joseph Greer on keyboard and guitar. The
self-titled album will feature 12 new songs recorded in Los Angeles with
producer Tony Hoffer (Beck, M83, Phoenix).
A first taste of the record in the form of album track Rabbit Hole is available to stream from today via www.thetempertrap.com. The first single from the album will be opening track Need Your Love, due for release on 7 May.
‘The Temper Trap’ is the follow up to 2009’s debut long-player ‘Conditions’. Featuring the singles Science of Fear, Fader, Love Lost and Sweet Disposition, the album was one of the breakthrough successes of the year and has now been certified Gold two-times over in the UK, selling over 800,000 copies worldwide.
