Strangely intriguing
‘Tiger’ is taken from Amari’s upcoming seventh album ‘Poeri’, which has seen the band push themselves to the limit by integrating a love of post rock, disco, hip hop as well as some 90s guitars while writing half of the lyrics in English.
This is a simple sounding tune. Lyrically it consists of an opening verse and a bridge, then two other verses that are stuck on repeat. One will play and repeat for a while before the other kicks in and does exactly same before reverting back to the first. Although the song doesn’t sound all that interesting and can not be understood very well due to the accent of the vocalists, somehow it has the ability to really catch the ear and you may find yourself mumbling the lyrics, due to the underlying hip-hop beat, stronger guitars and the way they blend with the lyrics.
‘Tiger’ is a strange one for the fact the music is quite stationary and the lyrics repetitive, yet it catches your attention and is quite memorable…odd!
