Description: | "Ambush" (2020 re-issue) comes newly remastered at Medley Studios, Copenhagen, with
extensive sleeve notes from all of the band members. Four bonus tracks complete the package
including a live track featuring the line up that recorded the album.
lt's a cold day in Kent in 2012 and Tygers of Pan Tang have convened at Ecology Studios to
record their new album. No one could have realised that this would be the last recording to
feature guitarist Dean Robertson. Neither could the band have guessed that it would be the last
time that they could work with a man who had been involved with them since the very beginning
- Chris Tsangarides. Chris was such a totem to the band that vocalist Jack Meille has
commented,
"I was so excited to meet and work with Chris Tsangarides. The week I spent in the studio with
him marks a landmark in my musical career. Chris made me feel so comfortable and allowed me
to discover the full potential of my voice. Thank you Chris, this remastered version of 'Ambush'
is dedicated to you! "
Uplifted by the reception given to their previous album the band were firing on all cylinders. A set
of newly written songs were rehearsed and merely awaiting the magic that Chris would add, as
he had done to earlier albums such as the majestic "Spellbound". The band's reputation, as a
live act who could deliver had ensured that they were a welcome addition to any festival bill
resulting in a sharpness as honed as at any time in their illustrious past. Guitarist Dean
Robertson recently commented,
"The ideas were good, very good in fact, I think the four of us were finally getting what the
TYGERS sound was and Robb was buzzing. "
Those ideas came not from one man but from all band members with new bass player Gav Gray
and long serving drummer Craig Ellis proving that they too could write and create new music in
true Tygers' style. But we will leave the final word to Robb Weir, the man who founded the band
and continues to believe in the power of their music.
"An Ambush is actually the collective name for a group of tigers in the wild. I feit that we were
focussed and united on that record with a surging creative spirit so "Ambush" seemed like the
appropriate name for the album." - Incl 4 bonus tracks for download :
