The Ting Tings will name new album Kunst

The Ting Tings revealed some details about their new album that the band was recording in Berlin. According to singer Katie White, it will be named Kunst (which is translated from Deutch as Art). The title was inspired by the massage parlour near The Ting Tings’ studio.

«Just round the corner to our studio there's a massage parlour, it's called Massage Kunst. We took a picture of that and sent it to our label, saying this is the title of the album. They went berserk», said she.

Katie White also revealed that new album’s sound changed several times during the recording: «We listened back to some of the demos and we thought, hold on a minute, this is sounding too much like we’re rocking out live. We bought a couple of old weird synths in New York and smuggled them in our suitcases back to Berlin and they started to come strong on the music».

The Ting Tings’ debut album We Started Nothing hit the stores in 2008.
