Tiger By The Tail

June 19th, 2006 by Crossfire

There’s a certain style to the way Australians play rock and roll. There’s something darker and more menacing about the way they swing when they’re kicking out the punk rock jams down under.

The Scientists, The Saints, Radio Birdman, Celibate Rifles and many more Aussie punk rock greats all have a feeling and attitude that separates them from their European and American counter-parts. And Tiger By The Tail are keeping the tradition alive and strong.

Recorded and mixed in 48 hours at the legendary Birdland Studios in Melbourne, this, their debut album is a whiskey soaked, boozy bluesy wretched rock n’roll record that oozes primal screams and howling guitars, then moments of clear clarity and aching melody.

It’s hard to believe this is the band’s debut release as there are moments here that should be far beyond the band’s experience and years. In short, this is ace.
