Temper Trap Talk about new synth album

The Temper Trap have recently been speaking about their new self-titled second album and revealed that there is a "80s synth" influence on the record.

This will be Teper Traps second studio album and will be released on the 21st of May and their first single taken from their album 'Need Your Love' on May 7th. The band's guitarist Lorenzo Sillitto said "We've always wanted to go in that direction. We bought a Moog, and we already had a keyboard that had some synth elements. When we got in the studio it was our way of making things more textural, we used a lot of old 80s synths to the songs."

This year is an exciting one for the band as they are headlining their first UK festival at Oxfordshire's Truck Festival. Sillitto also had this to say “The UK was the place where it all started for us, so we're really excited. Headlining a festival seems so bizarre for us at this stage of things.” After the success of their first album ‘Conditions’ it will be no surprise that their new album will appeal to their current audience as well as expanding to attract a much wider fan base.
