Tigercub have launched a music video to accompany their latest single, “The Perfume Of Decay“. The group had Michael Bedwell helm that shoot. Speaking of how the video came to be, the band’s vocalist/guitarist Jamie Hall offered:
“Towards the end of a dull, dark, and soundless day in the autumn of the year, when the clouds hung oppressively low in the heavens, we got in our van and drove to Lincolnshire. As the shades of the evening drew on, we eventually found ourselves, within view of our video shoot destination, the melancholy Revesby Abbey.
It was midnight. As we entered an air of gloom and uncertainty took over us. Nature had almost completely reclaimed the building, The building itself was beautiful but clearly, the discoloration of ages had been great. The scent of decay was everywhere. Birds had nested in the far corners, windows were broken letting the freezing air in, the floorboards were rotten through to mulch.
Every step we took in the building felt like a risk, as though the floor would give way and swallow us up at any point… Naturally, it was hard for me not to buy into the immense symbolism of it all.”
The aforementioned UK alternative rock trio have found themselves a champion in Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard. Last year saw the grunge icon sign Tigercub to his own Loosegroove Records label, with Gossard frequently touting the band’s praises.
A pair of festival shows are currently on deck for the band, they include:
05/19 Daytona Beach, FL – Welcome To Rockville
05/27 Columbus, OH – Sonic Temple Art + Music Festival
