THE FACTORY LIVE + HAMMERDOWN PRESENTS
TYGERS OF PAN TANG
Emerging in 1978 as part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, English rockers Tygers of Pan Tang employ a muscular blend of melody and might that falls somewhere between Def Leppard and Saxon. After debuting in 1980 with the raw, chart-topping Wildcat, the band issued a string of successful LPs with more commercial aspirations and landed a pair of hits with "Hellbound" and a fiery cover of the Leiber & Stoller-penned "Love Potion No. 9." The group officially re-formed in 1999 around guitarist and co-founder Robb Weir, who guided the band through the ensuing decades with studio albums like Animal Instinct (2008), Tygers of Pan Tang (2016), and Bloodlines (2023).
