Rockers Tygers Of Pan Tang are gearing up to release a new four track EP, “A New Heartbeat,” on February 25th via Mighty Music. The EP features two re-recorded tracks from their first album “Wild Cat,” plus two new tracks.
“Fireclown” and “Killers” from “Wild Cat” now firmly bear guitarist Francesco Marras‘ musical stamp and new tracks “A New Heartbeat” and “Red Mist” demonstrate what might be expected from the next Tygers album – the Tygers signature sound of heavy as hell riffs, finger knotting solos and Jack Meille’s vocals extraordinaire. The mix was executed by Marco Angioni at Angioni Studios and, as with all recent Tygers releases, the mastering was completed by Harry Hess (Harem Scarem).
The release comes initially as a digipak CD and will only be available in physical form from the Tygers website and directly from their record company Mighty Music/Target Group. It’s on sale exclusively now in Targetshop.dk and in the band’s webshop. A vinyl version will follow.
Guitarist Robb Weir commented: “‘Fireclown’ and ‘Killers’ are much neglected Tygers gems. They are rarely played live but often requested so we thought it would be interesting to hear a modern take on them. Visiting the past brings back so many memories for us and, I’m guessing, for Tygers followers.”
Vocalist Jack Meille added: “Lockdown may have prevented us from playing live but it couldn’t curtail the creative spirt that has resulted in the creation of ‘A New Heartbeat’ and ‘Red Mist’ for this single.”
