Tiger Army have released new song ‘Eyes Of The Night,’ the first track from the band’s forthcoming studio album, Retrofuture, out on 13th September via Rise Records.
Retrofuture was produced by Ted Hutt (The Gaslight Anthem, Old Crow Medicine Show, Lucero) and is an album that weaves, stylistically, through vintage punk, garage and rock ’n’ roll while still maintaining a curious modernity as influences from Latin music to surf shoot through like satellites in the night sky. Present as always are the band’s signature melodicism and frontman Nick 13’s ethereal vocals. 13 had the following to share about ‘Eyes Of The Night’:
“I write what I’m inspired by in the moment – since releases in recent years have been more about vocal-driven ballads or Americana with my solo project than something that draws from hardcore punk, I thought it would be fun to release ‘Eyes Of The Night’ as a first peak at ‘Retrofuture’. Listeners should never get too complacent in their idea of what Tiger Army sounds like, there are more surprises ahead!”
The band will embark on the ‘Retrofuture Tour’ in September, with dates through the end of 2019 taking them across the United States, Canada, the EU, UK and Mexico. Fellow Angelenos SadGirl will support in the States, with Finnish post-punks Grave Pleasures supporting in Europe and the UK.
