tiger flowersYou guys know about Tiger Flowers already, right?

The good gents in one of NYC’s best, noisiest and most esoteric up and coming metal bands have offered us an exclusive stream of their brand new track “The Last Horse.” Check it out in all its cacophonous glory below, then check out some of the band’s other material on their MySpace page. Tiger Flowers go on a mini-tour of the Northeast starting on February 17th; their raucous live show is not to be missed.

    I’ll just go with the obvious here: WHY WOULD YOU NAME YOUR FUCKING METAL BAND “TIGER FLOWERS”???? I know you’re angling for a slot at SXSW next year and hoping some indie-hipster-metal-Hydra Head label will put out your next “limited edition vinyl release” or whatever, but COME ON, MAN!!!!

    Let me guess… NYC…. Williamsburg?

    • stu1

      Yeah, be way cooler if they had some derivative black metal name and an unreadable logo. Or were some white trash biker bar metal.

    • Damien

      Love this band! By the way Cobras, why not name a band tiger flowers? Tiger Flowers was a boxer. He became the first African-American middleweight champion.

  • Sewer

    ugh so fucking tired of drumkit from hell/superior drummer. it makes your shitty br00tal band sound like a guitar pro song

      i totally agree. are no studios capable of micing an acoustic drumkit nowadays?

  • Tonberry

    I’m not really feeling this track too much, but the stuff on their myspace is awesome.

    I like the song. These dudes are awesome live.

  • B-dizzle

    WHO WON THE UNREADABLE LOGO CONTEST?

  • I killed a Dunky

    B-dizzle U DID PASS BY THE MANSSION TO PICK UR SIX PACK

  • SP420

    Who is this band? Wait, I don’t to know. They suck.

    • Kevin

      I don’t to know either!

  • Alex_P

    That clean melodic break is just painful. I turned it off right after that. Though I’m willing to believe that this is not their best song, I feel no need to listen to this again, especially when I’m currently listening through the entire Isis discography. As for this brand of “sludge-core” (or whatever), Kowloon Walled City are better, and I don’t even like them all that much.

    • Geekbeater

      Yea that fucking weird part at the end with him kinda yelling in an awful NY somewhere accent was terrible and ruined the song. I didnt mind the first half the song as much but. The name Tiger Flowers is terrible too. I dont give a shit what the deep meaning is it still blows.

  • builtforsin

    Reminds me of Norma Jean via O’ God the Aftermath.

  • BenGleason

    This song fucking rules, can’t wait for the whole ep. Stop hating and go see them for the real experience.

  • dillian wildermott

    where the hell are all the chug chugs?
    pretty decent band though

  • no-ghost

    they are pretty good.

  • paul thorstenson

    This band is good. Haters who write negative things on blogs are doomed to choke on doritos with their underwear around their ankles and their small cocks in their hands. they are also very fat and have lots of pimples. Their bodies will be discovered by their grandmothers, of whom they will live with until they expire of a heart attack while jerking off to internet pornography. Tiger Flowers, do not let these small minded, and small penised boys get to you. Keep making good music and laugh at the losers who will never play a show or have sex with anything other than their hands.

  • mixie

    I’ve been a fan of these guys since before they were Tiger Flowers. You folks don’t know what your’e talking about. They’re brilliant! And as for them trying to be anything or on some indie label. WRONG! These guys have been around since before you were all nut stains on your mom’s drawers.

  • Sandwiches

    Good band, good dudes. And their bass player Will is gay when he’s drunk.

  • tugtooth

    Tiger Flowers is one of the most original bands around right now. This song is intense in every way. So ready to see them live tomorrow.

    For all the nay-sayers, Where is your sense of art? this is especially original in the metal scene. Instead of writing everything you’re into with new lyrics, they’ve stepped it up a notch and brought forth something worth listening. While still tastefully derivative, you’ve never heard something like this before.

    and whoever the dude at the top is, Can you give me the exact date and time when Artists became “hipsters”?

    I happen to think these dudes are going place, A LOT of place.

    GO SEE TIGER FLOWERS ON THEIR UP AND COMING TOUR W/ MARCH OF ECHOS!! IT STARTS TOMORROW!!

    another amazing new song from these guys. if you haven’t seen them live yet i suggest doing so. one of the best guitar and bass sounds you’ll experience in “metal”. awesome band, awesome name, awesome song. period.

  • Will Gomez

    Hahahaha.. These comments are pretty awesome! Even the bad ones! Bring it on you 14yr old haters!! haha Why am I so gay when I’m drunk? I just love everybody!! =)

  • Chill out

    Never heard of them but this song is pretty damn sick

    Uppercut vanflip haymaker donkey punch.
    On February 26, 1926, before a crowd of 16,311 at Madison Square Garden, Flowers dethroned Greb by unanimous decision, and would repeat the victory in August.
    On February 17, 2010 before a crowd of bitter metal commenters (whose only chance at music was the sad whistle they made when their toothless mouths cupped mommy’s nipple just a few years back at Metalsucks.net,) Flowers dethroned everyone by unanimous decision. Pathetic little whistlers. Flowers will repeat the victory.
    These guys write exciting music. It’s new. It’s fresh… and live it translates into something with real energy.
    If I were a boy who roams around the internet on metal forums calling himself “cobras,” who is the first to comment (IN ALL CAPS TOO) I’d feel like a waste of sperm. I mean I’d sit there, covered in my own smegma, the smell of lube on my commenting computer hands as I fumble with the meatloaf from last night that mom threw down here because she’s too ashamed to see me half naked at my computer hunched over like a jumbo shrimp bashing the creative integrity of bands and artists that just flies right over my head. So I lash out because I don’t understand. That’s what “cobras” sounds like.
    If you haven’t seen Tiger Flowers live, do it! It’s a lot of fun.
    Good god, I have to go put a shirt on and wash the Lubriderm out from in between my fingers. I have meatloaf in the microwave.

    meow!

    I saw them play this song live. It sounds WAY better that way.

    I like this band a lot, and they really should get a recording that does their live show justice. This ain’t it.
