Coming Soon - Studio Report part
1 1st December 2011 We thought it would be of interest to you if we gave you a little insight into how the new album is constructed from writing stage right through to the recording and mix. At the moment the band have about twenty songs in various stages, although we pretty much know which twelve we will pick for the album. The band are really excited with the new songs which show how the band have progressed since 'Animal Instinct'. Craig plays a vital role in the arrangement of songs from the first 'riff' idea to the final arrangement and 'Stage 1' will be his version of events. Stage 2 will be the actual recording process report and for Stage 3, we will ask Chris T to put his thoughts down on the sound and vibe he is trying to get from the mix and pulling the sound together. Stage 1 will be with you shortly so keep checking out the site for more details. |

Chris Tsangarides to produce new
Tygers album 28th November 2011 We are delighted to announce that Chris Tsangarides will be producing and mixing the forthcoming album. Recording is scheduled for February 2012 at Chris's studio in Kent and mixing will take place in March. It is a real coup for the band to get such a well known producer and we know he will ensure that the vibe, feel and spirit of the album is in keeping with the Tygers signature sound. For those of you who are not familiar with Chris, he was at the desk for both the 'Wildcat' and 'Spellbound' albums back in 1980/81 which really helped to make these albums the classic releases that they became. Chris also makes an appearance in the 'Anvil story' as well as being associated with a multitude of top class Bands. The new album which has a working title of 'Ambush' will be released circa June 2012, this is a little later than planned but we wanted to make sure we had everything in place. |
