tigercub

All hail the glorious grunge giants - local lads Tigercub have been getting better with each album, and this dramatic, spectacular latest is an emotive, explosive riot of a record.

on their third record of nocturnal, hard-hitting rock, frontman Jamie Hall draws the curtains shut and embraces a moody, melancholic sound that's every bit as cinematic as Hollywood itself. It's an album about counterpoint and opposites, stacked with songs that contrast overdriven guitars with whispered vocals, tight grooves with shoegazing swells of noise, sonic experimentation with sharp songwriting. For a band that's always trafficked in drama and dynamics, 'The Perfume of Decay' marks Tigercub's strongest release to date.
