Video: The Temper Trap, ‘Sweet Disposition’

2

No instrument is safe (and, for that matter, neither are the Edge’s guitar tones) in the Temper Trap’s “Sweet Disposition.” The Australian quartet blew through town recently for an exhilarating show at the Fonda Theatre that reinforced the notion that there’s still an audience (and a young one at that) for well-done atmospheric rock. Singer Dougie Mandagi and bandmates are currently circling North America on a tour that includes an April 17 date at Coachella. Theirs is the kind of music that works well in the desert.
