TIGER RIOT

This Long Island rock band released their full-length Look Up! via Brookvale Records. The album can be heard streaming in its entirety at aol.com (which I could not, for the life of me, get it to work) and tunelab.com.
The album will be released in three different packages: standalone album, album + T-Shirt and a deluxe package containing CD, T-Shirt, Sticker, Autographed Poster & 3 additional remixed tracks. All the details are listed here.
The band described themselves as:
"We play music we love to hear and we want to play music that others love to hear. Cliché or not, we believe music is communal. We want to give back what our favorite bands and musicians have given to us. Listening to music is the one thing in this entire world that every single person does or has done. There is something to be said about how special that is."

I'm not given too much on Paper Crows, so I can't really write too much. But it seems they're based out of London, consisting of Emma Panas and Duncan McDougall. Their song "Fingertips" is to be released as a double A-Side with "Follow the Leader" on March 14th. You can preview the tracks on soundcloud.com.
They seem fairly new, they met at music college and their "Follow the Leader" song is described as "brilliantly, dark and unsettling", while "Fingertips" as "simply stunning".
They also seem to have a thing for dramatic live shows, so it should be interesting to see them live - unfortunately you might have to wait around March to see what they're up to, as far as touring goes.
The pair are currently in the studio recording their debut album.

I don't have Fuel TV, but if you do, according to my notes, check out The Daily Habit where they just performed "Shake Me Down" (their latest hit) today , and will appear again on February 4th for "2024".
