The Temper Trap - Thick As Thieves

Album

Thick as Thieves is the third studio album by Australian indie-alternative rock band The Temper Trap.

It was produced by Rich Cooper and Damian Taylor. The album was released on 10 June 2016, by Liberation Music in Australia, by Infectious Records in the United Kingdom, and by Glassnote Records in the United States, and is the first to be co-written by the band with outside personnel. Thick as Thieves also marks the first album by the band without guitarist and founding member Lorenzo Sillitto, after his departure in late 2013.

Serving as a follow-up to their experimentalself-titled second studio album, Thick as Thieves reverts to a guitar-oriented sound reminiscent of their debut album, with lyrics inspired by various experiences by members of the band. Recording and production started in early 2013 at Byron Bay. The band changed their traditional method of song writing for Thick as Thieves, moving from development of ideas utilising jam sessions, to a streamlined process using various ideas by band members.

Stumped by the departure of Sillitto, and fluctuating frequently between recording and touring, however, development spanned three years, mostly recorded with Taylor and engineer Russel Fawcus at the band's private studios in London in late 2014 and early 2015. Initially, finishing touches were recorded at Taylor's Golden Ratio Studios in Montreal in April 2015, but after numerous delays, even after initially tracking the album in April 2015, recording on the album was eventually completed in October 2015.

Thick as Thieves

With its release formally announced in April 2016, the album was preceded by the appearances of title track "Thick as Thieves", and fifth track "Fall Together" on singles, in February and April 2016, respectively. Further promotion included a low-key headlining tour and an extensive festival tour in mid-2016 of Asia, Australia, Europe and the United States, and later an extensive tour of North America in late 2016.

Upon release, Thick as Thieves was met with lukewarm positive reviews, though an improvement on the reception of the band's previous album. Critics mostly agreed on the quality of the album's sound and production, with a volume of praise being directed at lead singer Dougy Mandagi's vocals, but were otherwise divided on the album's lyricism and the lack of deviation from the band's previous material. In addition, Thick as Thieves topped the ARIA Albums Chart in the week of its release – the band's second album to do so.

Storia

La band nasce nel 2005. Dougy, il cantante, e Toby, il batterista, lavoravano in un negozio d'abbigliamento e, trovandosi spesso a parlare di musica, un giorno decisero di cominciare a fare qualche jam insieme. Poco tempo dopo si aggiunse un chitarrista e poi Jony, l'attuale bassista. In seguito si unì a loro Lorenzo Sillitto, il quale lavorava in un negozio di musica.

I The Temper Trap iniziarono a farsi conoscere tra il 2008 e i primi mesi del 2009, esibendosi in festival musicali e manifestazioni in giro per il mondo. Nel marzo del 2009 finirono di registrare il loro album di debutto, Conditions, prodotto da Jim Abbiss, già produttore di artisti come Arctic Monkeys e Kasabian.

Lyrics

We know where you are
We are never far
Want you to feel
Safe and sound
Safe and sound

From the moment you wake up we know
When you start and stop we know
We Just want you to feel
Safe and sound
Safe and sound

(chorus)
So strike a light and throw it
Make a noise and shout it
Make a noise and shout it
Shout it shout it
Who can you believe
Brothers thick as thieves
They're all thick as thieves

No one's asking how or why
We're busy getting high on life
They just want us to feel
Safe and sound
Safe and sound

(chorus)

...

Make a noise and shout it
Shout it shout it
Who do you believe
Brothers thick as thieves
They're all thick as thieves

Testo

Sappiamo dove sei
Non siamo mai lontani
Voglio che tu senta
Sano e salvo
Sano e salvo

Dal momento in cui ti svegli lo sappiamo
Quando inizi e ti fermi, lo sappiamo
Vogliamo solo farti sentire
Sano e salvo
Sano e salvo

(rit.)
Quindi accendi una luce e lanciala
Fai rumore e gridalo
Fai rumore e gridalo
Gridalo gridalo
A chi puoi credere
Fratelli grossi come ladri
Sono tutti grossi come ladri

Nessuno chiede come o perché
Siamo occupati a sballarci con la vita
Vogliono solo che ci sentiamo
Sano e salvo
Sano e salvo

(rit.)

...

Fai rumore e gridalo
Gridalo gridalo
A chi credi
Fratelli grossi come ladri
Sono tutti grossi come ladri
