The Ting Tings rocked, okay, danced our faces off four years ago with their break out debut album, We Started Nothing. “Great DJ,” “That’s Not My Name” and “Shut Up and Let Me Go” were just a few of the singles from the album that soundtracked our summer, heard everywhere from television commercials to movies to, of course, parties.

Now the UK drum and guitar duo, who got their own momentum playing parties at Islington Mill Studios, is back with a new album, Sounds From Nowheresville, and a show tonight at Metro. Last time we saw them (also at Metro) they played to a packed house and Katie White had everyone following her lead with bubbly, spunky moves.

Tix are still available for $25. It’s an early one though, so hurry home and get your dance pants on and get there at 7:30pm to catch electronic opener MDNR.

Here’s a look at The Ting Ting's newest video for “Hang It Up.”
