ROMANCE
OF YOUNG TIGERS is a band from Dayton, OH that embodies every
reason Magic Bullet Records exists in the first place. In short, the
music is unapologetically revolutionary and the packaging is obsessively
arduous in its creation. Whereas 99.9% of bands looking to connect
with a label think that a list of "bands we shared the stage
with" and a Staples-brand CD-R of "unmixed stuff we need
to finish" will do the trick, ROMANCE OF YOUNG TIGERS
initially dropped a visual and aural treasure chest upon our doorstep,
making perhaps the greatest first impression we've ever had from a
band. Masterfully-crafted songs (that truthfully can't be likened
accurately to anything else out there) were housed in painstakingly
hand-screened, hand-made packaging (wooden boxes, maps, the works).
Not even a mention of "shopping" for a label. In short,
they made fans of us instantly.
I Have Supped Full Of Horrors is the formal launching of
their previously self-released (and inaugural) triumphant bludgeoning
of all things mediocre. 4 tracks, 35 minutes of sheer brilliance.
A lot of bands can shove a wall of sound in your face. Plenty of bands
have a guy or two who is technically "amazing." Very few
bands can unite both into an engrossing, captivating listen... and
even fewer can do so WITHOUT PERCUSSION. It is in this rare air that
ROMANCE OF YOUNG TIGERS hovers high above the glut
of instrumental rock to inundate listeners in recent times. For a
band to come right out of the chute with such a dynamic and captivating
sense of taste versus composition is truly a treat to behold and indicative
of a revolutionary trajectory in years to come. They know when to
come in, they know how to hook you, they know when to leave you wanting
more. |
