Infinite Tiger are basically marketing geniuses, you see they wrote their debut album all about how the end of the world is coming and associated nihilistic tendencies then managed to time the release of that album with a global pandemic that caused the whole world to shit itself and suspect that the end of the world may very well be coming. While the thematic synergy was par excellence, the one flaw in the whole plan was being able to play live shows to promote the album to audiences.
So here we are, a few months later, and Infinite Tiger are finally playing shows to celebrate the arrival of their debut album, L’Exposer, which is a kaleidoscope of sonic mayhem and good vibes masquerading as the aural apocalypse. Made from a palette of obscure samples, live drums and guitars and assorted synths the album was all stitched together with the capable production skills of Darren Seltmann (ex-Avalanches), Infinite Tiger’s live shows find equilibrium between head nodding left-field hip-hop and a punk attitude.
Because they don’t particularly like sleeping, the band are also head long into producing album number two and will have a few new tunes to road test, a video reel accompaniment and possibly a few good friends to pop up during the show.
Supporting both sittings will be Inner West legends The High Ceilings who will be delivering their ever faithful Sonic Youth covering Neil Young vibes.
