Tempers
●

We first introduced you to rapidly rising NYC duo Tempers back in February, when exhilarating debut single Eyes Wide Wider had us all worked up like a frisky middle-aged PA at a Gary Barlow mega-gig. Well guess what, they’re back. Whilst the second single, streaming below, won’t win any extra marks for originality – much like the first – the choruses, delivered by Jasmine Golestaneh with an almost primitive yelp, are huge; the synths, to use the vernacular of annoying people in Dalston dive bars, ‘epic’.

Strange Harvest is out now via Pendu Sound.
