It's been some frantic time for Tigerbombs since the release of their first album 'loves you' from 2004. Now they're back with a vengeance. The debut album introduced a fearless band leaning towards early garage rock tunes filled with glamorous power pop attitude blasting out the amplifiers. The songs were full of heart shaking melodies and lyrics that dropped more than just jaws. The album coinciding with hyperactive live performances put some landmarks on Finnish pop soil. It was not only Finland where pop scenes were taken by surprise when this joyful duo appeared on the map with their youthful energy build up in three minute dance floor fillers. The gigs, in Europe, UK and even in Japan proved the band being more than just a glimpse. Now the band has really grown up to fill their sneakers.

The second full length album 'Crazy Kids Never Learn' introduces not a grown up band but a band blasting through the teenage year doors, lusting to see more than it's allowed to.

This time Tigerbombs throw in a higher gear with nitro boost - soon after you recover from the irresistable ass moving force, you start to hear more and more bits and pieces from the vast history of pop music. While still retaining the punk attitude introduced on the first album the new album spills out some totally nutty pop music guts. The new songs show up more diverse, more layered and versatile compared to the earlier works. Anyhow the basic tiger-building blocks are still easily found from the refreshed sound palette: vintage pop organs, joyous guitar melodies, love oozing lyrics, strutting drumming and some damn easy going bass lines.

The 35 tight minutes assure you'll be hooked from the first note to the last...dancing with sparks in your flaming eyes. This album conquers some definitive space from your all time favourites section.

The album was recorded in Finland by Tigerbombs themselves and it was mixed in Gula Studion, Malmo, Sweden in July 2005. The Gula Studion has been made famous by some well known visitors like Franz Ferdinand, The Ark, Suede and so on. The last song of the album features some neat horn performances from the super-multi-talented Gula Studion brothers Lindgard from the mopeds.(it must be mentioned that The Mopeds was one of the reasons Tigerbombs ever took some early directions that lead to this very date). All the other instruments were played by Trouble & Retro.

The album was released in Finland on February 1st 2006 and soon after will be released in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Japan.

Well...now the Tigerboms are rolling into your heart too. And they will steal it permanently. And you don't even mind. Be warned.
