You probably know The Temper Trap from 2009’s Conditions and the runaway success of its single “Sweet Disposition,” whose sugary indie pop was featured in an artificially sweetened Diet Coke commercial.
The Aussies have a new self-titled album out, and they are currently touring in support of the album across North America, Europe, and Australia in the company of School of Seven Bells, Crocodiles, and Coldplay.
We have your chance to snag a special picture disc 7″ UK import of “Need Your Love” b/w “Rabbit Hole” from the eponymous LP. Fancy!
Obviously based on The Karate Kid, the video for “Need Your Love” answers the questions, “What happens after Daniel defeats Johnny? What happens when you’re no longer ‘the best around’ ?” The Temper Trap’s new vid is a sequel with heartwarming twist on rivalry, bullying, friendship, and forgiveness. Aw.
We love ’80s movies. For a chance to win the single, tell us/link us your favorite video from an ’80s movie. Bonus points for movie montages.
I’ve got to go with Berlin’s “Take My Breath Away” from Top Gun. Montage magic there.
A winner with a North American mailing address will be chosen on Wednesday, June 13th.
