about

⋘"Last Horse" comes from the self-titled debut EP by TIGER FLOWERS, released by THE PATH LESS TRAVELED RECORDS on September 20, 2011.⋙

◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ BAND BIOGRAPHY & INFORMATION ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊

Tiger Flowers is a Hardcore / Metal / Rock band that formed in October 2007 by ex-members of Johnny Cage is a Fake and My Bitter End. Hailing from NYC, the band has solidified their position as a powerhouse; first within the New York City metal scene and slowly but surely over the years and a great deal of touring - mostly around the Eastern Coast of the U.S. - they have begun to pick up a wider audience.

Their live show is nothing short of absolutely insane and intense in the best of ways. Vocalist Jesse James Madre, who works as a tattoo artist as his "daytime" job (he recently opened up his own studio!), is a character you'd expect to find in the midst of an acid trip resembling some cracked out version of Alice In Wonderland; his almost cartoonish mannerisms and hilarious stage banter is a huge reason this band is as interesting as they are in a live setting. However, that's absolutely NOT to take away from the other members, as each has a distinctive personality, filled with raw energy and pure passion for their music. They have rightfully been compared in both sound and intensity to such bands as GAZA and ELITIST (both of whom have made appearances on Sociopathic Mixtapes). The near-perfect blend which begins with an intrinsic hardcore sound and carries the band all the way through various other spectrums of metal - small elements of grind, sludge, mathcore, even a hint of death metal on occasion. Whether or not you enjoy "LAST HORSE" as a song, or their debut EP as a whole offering, you must give this band a chance in the live setting, where they're clearly most comfortable.

MEEK IS MURDER and TIGER FLOWERS, partly because they are based in the same city, and partly because the members have all become such good friends, tour and play individual shows together constantly now; seeing both bands on the same night is a truly special experience and one nobody should miss if you have an opportunity to see it.

Tiger Flowers are currently in the studio writing songs that will likely appear on a second EP, though they would like to write a full length at some point, so long as they find the time between their rather hectic schedules. And honestly, you won't find many musicians in metal bands who are as genuinely appreciative of even the slightest bit of positive feedback and/or support received from the fans. They are awesome individuals, so ESPECIALLY if you live in the Manhattan/Brooklyn area, follow these guys closely because they do play shows very often. If you live on the East Coast - places like New Jersey, Philadelphia, and even as far south as Delaware and occasionally Baltimore, you should have plenty of opportunities to catch these guys.

Hopefully, with a bit of luck and continued support by a great label like THE PATH LESS TRAVELED RECORDS, Tiger Flowers will become a nationally recognized act. They deserve it more than most.
