According to our records department, we first covered Turku, Finland's
The New Tigers in 2011, so the band and WYMA have been in a non-exclusive relationship with each other for 14 years (how very modern, of us). While the band's musical endeavors don't fall into a rigid compartment, they generally play a densely melodic brand of guitar pop -- perhaps a more shimmering, shoegazey Yo La Tengo. While they haven't been as active as we would like in recent years, they have dropped a thrilling surprise in the form of new single, "Off The Wall"/"Butterfly". The lead track is robust and best played loud, while the second song shimmers with no percussion and the guitars taking the front of the stage. We think these songs are among the band's best work. And that gives us happy hints about the planned 2026 album which will include both of them.
The New Tigers are Appu Jasu, Valtteri Virtanen, Janne Kauppinen, and Nico Kivikangas. The recording is out now as a digital release via Helsinki's Soliti Music.

The New Tigers have an appealing way of combining melodic guitar pop with a slightly rough and spontaneous atmosphere. “Off The Wall/Butterfly” sounds like the kind of release that can work especially well for listeners who enjoy understated indie music. More information is available at wonacos.
A Monster of the Week entry focused on a tulpa immediately catches the attention. I’d like to see how the article balances the folklore, supernatural elements, and the different interpretations of the creature. https://vavadaitaly.it
The tulpa is such an unusual subject that it makes a great choice for a series about monsters. I’m interested in learning what makes this particular legend or interpretation so compelling. https://starcasinos.com.de
“Tulpa - Monster of the Week” sounds like a fun entry for anyone who enjoys folklore and supernatural themes. The title alone makes me curious about the history and stories associated with this mysterious figure. https://luckyhauls.fr
