Featured Artist: I Blame Coco.

Here at Tantrum some of us are having a... well, tantrum, over the fact that one of our lovely writers got to see the glorious Coco Sumner of I Blame Coco.

Some of you may have heard her voice gracing the airwaves next to Robyn in Caesar, but for those a little less mainstream-minded, the alternative on her myspace, Self-Inflicted is just as good, if not better. With a killer synth, and vocals which Florence and the Machine or Marina and the Diamonds would sell their souls for, this could well turn out to be our track of the moment... and we think it should be yours too!

As if this all wasn't good enough - discovering an artist who (to quote the lucky Tantrum-ette that we shall not speak of) has a voice just as incredible as her legs - she's offering a free download of her new song Please Rewind from her up and coming album The Constant.

The album will be released late summer, so get in the queue - behind us of course...















Check our her myspace here for the songs mentioned and the free download link.

Featured Band: Two Door Cinema Club.

Get your oversized Skullcandy 'phones at the ready and prepare to hear the newest band gracing the Tantrum airwaves.

Two Door Cinema Club are a three piece band with self-admitted 'thirst for anything quirky.' Bringing melodies reminiscent of the glory days of the Editors and the natural lyrical and vocal comparisons to bands like Death Cab For Cutie, TDCC have created a winning a winning formula, bottled and sold in their debut album Tourist History.

Opener 'Cigarettes In The Theatre' is a fast paced guitar thriller which will bring back memories of the excitement of meeting strangers in smoking areas, with promises both kept and left unfulfilled. This is our recommended track, taking the old advice that the best place to start really is the beginning.

Other personal highlights include 'What You Know' and 'Come Back Home', but with so many great tracks to choose from, why just stop there?
