Perennial favourites THE TIGER TONES continue to impress and evolve, rewarding our patience after a short lull following the release of their debut LP on Pinacolada Records (Shocking Pinks, Pig Out) with a new line-up and outlook. Defying supernatural skeptics, the Tones have somehow managed to inflect those post-punk spirits which haunted the basslines and guitar shrieks of past hits through some rejuvenation crystals, emerging brighter and starry-eyed with a new-found penchant for the smokey corners of the club. Pummeling beats and 303-hypnotics are front and centre here, percussion tight as ever, lone bass wandering, shrugged vocals glitter like disco ball lights; sweet and nonchalant. Life Does Have a Purpose. -Shea Bermingham
