Giant Tigers’ new Me. We. captures
Locals Giant Tigers have released the new album Me. We., with the occasion marked by a JJ’s Bohemia gig this past Sunday night. The evening was a succession of fantastically energetic bands, including RTX, Hollywood and Slow Break, with Giant Tigers onstage last. Me. We. is one of those records that insist you should see Giant Tigers live. (I am here to confirm this.) Seven tracks with tight formats and fast meters—all under three minutes—catchy, distinctive hooks, and Nick Dupey’s distinct, powerful voice over face- punching drums beats and guitar licks make for an album perfectly suited for live performance.
Seeing them onstage, I thought, “These guys need a bigger stage.” With music that is the sound equivalent of stealing a shopping cart from Bi-Lo and taking it on a short, fast, out-of-control ride down the nearest loading-dock ramp, the full effect is felt only when the Tigers are in front of you. Listening to Me. We. does capture the essence of that energy aptly and makes you want more. Singer Nick Dupey e’d me,“Also, we are playing at JJ’s Easter Sunday with Monotonix from Israel. There will be things set on fire.”
Sounds like an occasion for wearing your Sunday best and getting out to see a local band who kick in adrenaline garage punk done as good as I have ever heard it. Mix with an Israeli band that sounds like a modernized Black Sabbath and you’ve got a recipe for a great night of live music.
