Sounds from Nowheresville is the second album to be released by The Ting Tings on 27 February 2012 in the UK, and 15 March in the United States. The band has released two songs from the album, "Silence" and "Hang It Up". Their 2010 single "Hands" was originally reported not to appear on the album, however the duo confirmed on Twitter that it will appear on the deluxe edition of the album. The band revealed that they had scrapped a whole album before moving to Spain to record their new album. The band started a project called "Show Us Yours", which gave artists and graphic designers the chance to create art and videos to show the band. One piece of art by artist Milan Abad showed both Katie White and Jules de Martino as skeletons. The piece caught the band's attention and later became the album artwork. White has said that stated that other entries will be placed in the album insert.
