Tempo Tantrum, Sova's third album, arrived in 2003 as a raw, unvarnished statement of intent. The record is notable for its unpolished production and the band's relentless energy.
- The album was recorded in a single week at Aardvark Studios with producer Liam Watson. It was the band's first release on the WoofWoofBeat label. The single "Stray Dog" became a surprise indie club hit.
- Tempo Tantrum charted at number 42 on the UK Independent Albums Chart. It was their highest-charting release to date.
- The album was a critical success, with NME calling it "a primal scream of pure rock and roll". The Guardian praised its raw honesty and Sova's unique, often unsettling, sonic palette.
Sova is an indie rock band from Brighton, UK. They gained notoriety in the early 2000s for their abrasive sound and chaotic live shows.
