Clash - "WE STARTED NOTHING brims with endorphin rushing synths, spiky new-wave Strat attacks and aeons of neon-splattered, sexy-slick gusto." Q - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[S]imple and primary-coloured, prizing punchy rhythms over muso flash....The Ting Tings are testament to the fact that raw enthusiasm trumps technical ability every time." Mojo - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[A]ll bouncing beats, shiny samples and an invigorating knack for a pop tune.' Rolling Stone - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The Ting Tings toss in enough untreated guitars, grrrl-power lyrics and subsonic Moog blurts to give WE STARTED NOTHING a certain edginess." Blender - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Throughout this fresh, snappy debut, White's pert vocals fall into step with drummer Jules De Martino's choppy, hip-jerking rhythms, fleshed out with new-wave keyboards and multitracked harmonies."

The breakout success of The Ting Tings' debut LP 'We Started Nothing' sees it getting the Special Edition treatment it deserves. Taking as its inspiration the taut post-punk and disco rhythms of the late 70s, alongside a healthy dose of Debbie Harry's swagger in vocalist Katie White, the Salford two-piece found considerable success on the back of some monster singles. The buoyant 'Shut Up And Let Me Go' and the pleading 'That's Not My Name' will be most familiar, but this deluxe version of the record also includes a DVD of live videos and documentaries which see the band become internationally successful from their humble Manchester roots.|
