Tiger Mountain's second CD release is an inspiring record, in fact I don't think I have ever been so inspired to write a review like this one.Tyler Lenane is a talented guitar player, and he is also one of the bands lead singers, too bad he is still waiting for his voice to break.  

Mike Jackson, also plays guitars and is the other lead singer, while his voice does not grate on your nerves, he has this pop music aurora about him. Either way the bands choice of singers is not up to par. 

In defense, some may say that they didn't have a good selection of singers to choose from.  Although weak that argument could hold water if there bassists wasn't Dean Rispler.  Dean Rispler's voice almost makes Tiger Mountain's pitiable melodies worth listening to. Unfortunately they only have Dean singing one song.

I am not sure what Tiger Mountain was thinking when they composed there songs, it is kind of Avril Lavigne meets N’sync meets Blink 182 gone bad.  Tiger Mountain seems to be trying to hard to fit the conformity of modern pop music, when quite frankly they don't have what it takes. They need to sit back and analyze what they are trying to do and perhaps rewrite the book on Tiger Mountain.

This album certainly does have its place, just not in my collection nor any rock enthusiast collection.
