tiger army kicks -ss. they are the best. you suck.
a band that has been variously embraced and discredited by the psychobilly scene.some people call them sell-outs, and other people love them.
tiger army is good- but it isn’t psychobilly isn’t just punk with a slap b-ss.
a small band of travelling hull city football fans who travel the length and breadth of england to support their team through both good and bad times – and show loyalty and spirit, singing when they are losing as well as winning, whether dolan or taylor are in charge – they never lose faith.

some particularly enlightened fans will own every alb-m by the band of the same name, and will be campaigning to get ‘never die’, ‘nocturnal’ and other rousing cl-ssics played before kick off instead of the usual ‘slit your wrists’ indie sh-te like coldplay and keane.
“when the tiger army’s on the prowl, and the human world just brings us down”.
a band that’s only considered psychobilly so that some kids can claim that’s what they listen to…
they’re a decent band, but not real psychobilly.
