Jamie Hall was staring out the window, letting his mind wander, when a phrase landed in his imagination: “Nets to Catch the Wind.” It was fleeting, almost accidental, but it resonated. It sounded expansive, cinematic, and full of possibility. It sounded like Tigercub.
“The Perfume of Decay was our midnight confession,” Hall reflects. “A gothic, heavy-metal record steeped in anxiety and noise. Nets To Catch The Wind is the dawn that follows, the white-light record set in the space between dreaming and waking. We built whole worlds out of darkness, and this record is about learning to live in the light even when you know it will not last.”
Recorded over nine days at the legendary Rockfield Studios in Wales, where Queen, Rush, and Oasis famously wrote records, Nets To Catch The Wind captures Tigercub at their most cinematic and unrestrained. Many core takes were tracked live, preserving the raw chemistry of the Brighton trio, Jamie Hall on vocals and guitar, Jimi Wheelwright on bass, and James Allix on drums, resulting in an album that is both immediate and transcendent. Produced by Tom Dalgety, known for his work with Royal Blood, Ghost, and Pixies, the record pushes the band into expansive, textured territory, exploring dynamics, space, and emotion in new ways.
