Salford duo set to work on follow-up to 'We Started Nothing'

The Ting Tings are planning to record their second album in early 2009.

The Salford duo told Teletext that they expected to get to work on their next effort sooner rather than later, having released their debut album, 'We Started Nothing', in May.

"The last record took three or four months to write, and we're looking at a similar time for the next one," said drummer Jules De Martino.

Singer/guitarist Katie White added: "I tried learning bass to help on the new songs.

"I'm good on rhythm guitar, but I quickly worked out bass is not my instrument. That won't affect the new songs too much."

There are so many things wrong in this I can't even point them out...first of all, that first album took a few months to make?! No wonder it was total crap! I mean I don't expect any band to take 5 years to make an album but they should spend a little more time working on itI'm really dying to know who ACTUALLY plays the instruments, if neither of them can really play
