Recorded at the legendary Rancho De La Luna, the recording studio of Dave Catching (co-founder of the Stoner Rock band Earthlings, tour band member of Eagles of Death Metal). He had in mind a powerful Wall of Sound. And rock'n'roll sounds unheard before. "Misfit" starts with "About Alice" exactly as impulsive and urgent as a song that says in the chorus: "I need to feel alive." Immediately afterwards the listener is confronted with the majestic sounding "Black Hole", a force of a song, which overwhelms one with the effective interplay between sound reduction and compression, between sound and silence - in the centre of the hurricane: the singing, barmende, begging Furtado. You can't get out of the number now. The Tigerman has one on his wrap, asks for a crazy dance under the glistening desert sun ("Child of Lust"), gives the cool rocker with punk attitude and rattling show-off machine ("Motorcycle Boy"), creates with "The Saddest Girl On Earth" a completely crazy one, The extremely compelling Americana version lets you feel the extremes of the desert landscape ("Red Sun") and the work ends with an ultra-short song pearl called "To All My (Few) Brothers" - a last greeting from the last pub in front of Death Valley's no-man's-land. And yet - there are the "Misfit Ballads", four delightful bonus beauties like from a Tarantino film, presented on the rubble of the previous sound explosions with a first-class cover at the very end: Tom Waits "Tango Till They're Sore" in an artistically arranged desert version. Is this all rock'n'roll or is it really something completely new? Well, it's The Legendary Tigerman. And the best thing to do is just to get involved and disappear with him not in the void, but in a universe in which there is an unbelievable amount to discover.
