On the strength of their self-titled debut EP in 2006, Melbourne, AUSTRALIA,
Alternative-Rock band The Temper Trap emerged as an endearing story packed
full of irresistible promise. The recording line-up for this outing comprised
singer + guitarist Dougy Mandagi, lead guitarist + keyboardist Lorenzo
Sillitto, bassist Jonathon Aherne and drummer Toby Dundas.
Intense and energetic live shows ensured an impressive tour roster with
the band gracing the stage with prestigious international acts including
Modest Mouse, Kasabian
and Cold War Kids.
In early 2009 the momentum gather pace with the band signing a worldwide
record deal with the newly re-launched Infectious Records, previously
home to Muse, Garbage
and Ash.
Completed in March, The Temper Trap's debut album, "Conditions",
was released in their native Australia in June 2009, eventually going
into the top 10 of the ARIA sales chart. Two months later the CD was released
in Europe where it broke the official U.K. Top 40 Albums chart led by
the hypnotic and gliding melodic spell of "Sweet Disposition",
a single which climbed to the top 30.
