Tiger Army is raking in the good reviews. Heres one from Zero.
Tiger Army
III: Ghost Tigers Rise
Hellcat Records
The fathers of American Psychobilly have returned from the dead with their new full-length Ghost Tigers Rise. This return from the dead is more than figurative for drummer Fred Hell, who was shot four times when crackheads broke into his friend's apartment and opened fire on Mach 10, 2003. Hell is certainly some sort of immortal demon, seeing that he survived the onslaught of hot lead, which included a shot to the head, and was back in the studio working on Ghost Tigers Rise in less than three months.
Ghost Tigers Rise is a slight departure from Tiger Army's previous efforts in that there is not one track that makes you want to jump around or punch people. Although the album is more well-suited to quiet contemplation than moshing, it still retains Tiger Army's distinct psychobilly sound, just with a little less psycho and more 'billy. This is not saying they have lost one bit of intensity; things have just slowed down a notch. Nick 13's voice is as captivating as ever and will have you savoring every note that passes his blessed evil vocal chords.
Ladies and Gentlemen, prepare to swoon, because Ghost Tigers Rise is packed with emotion that truly penetrates you and leaves you satisfied.
