Paper Tigers: “A Portrait of a Scene”

See this content in the original post

Boston’s Paper Tigers currently have one show on their Bandcamp calendar. Wonder which show that is? On our highlighted track and 2022 single, the rock n roll four-piece conjures up a melange of post punk, emo, artrock skullduggery. There’s a refreshing minimalism to the approach, a refusal to drown the rhythm section in walls of six-string haze. Instead we get a bright beat suffused with a few electric guitar notes, judiciously deployed… Until you get to the climax, then all bets are off as a wild windstorm of distortion gives the lead vocals suitably high seas of heaving tumult to shout over.

Stream, share, buy to your heart’s content.
