"Tap Tap, if you ask me, is the pure indie. The essence of soundos lost and the most important, your will not find rock like we know. If you like the strange music you will love this. Experimental music is here. About the songs, well, i like all. Maybe Talk Slowly y What a Clever Thing to Say are the best for my test, they are soft, slowly, short and big letters. Little Match (Big Fire), Way To Go Boy, 100,000 Thoughts, On my Way are more comercial maybe, they have more sounds, more move, a lot of rhytm. Anyway I'm not a critic of music but I can say that is different, it's indie!!!!"
Immaculate

"I've never gone to the trouble of writing a review on Amazon even though I own over 1300 CD's. This album is simply stuck in my head and is one of the most incredible things I've ever heard. There are some similarities to Arcade Fire, but it is like a stripped down version but still has incredible song structures. I actually met Mr. Thomas Sanders in England (the writer/singer) and he is quite the eccentric fellow. If you like this check out his other project Pete & the Pirates, who are more in the vein of a traditional English indie band. There album is due out in Jan/Feb 2008. There should also be a new Tap Tap album out before or during the summer of '08. Please do yourself a favor and check out this band. You won't be sorry."
Tap Tap out of my Slump Slump

"It had been months since I found an album that got my attention. Nothing seemed to work. It was early summer when Beirut, Oh No! OH My! and Sunset Rubdown were on top of my listening world and it was all down hill since then.
Finally I picked up Tap Tap. It not only ended my slump, it gave me one more precious album in the mode of uptempo indie that doesnt suck because most uptempo indie sounds like everything else. There are definitely a good eight or nine just incredibly catchy, bouncy, songs with excellent insturmentation. Definitely highly recommended."
