SOFT TIGERS Befitting their birth in the age of the sampler, SOFT TIGERS flit in and out of genre like a cordial-swigging kid flicking through the channels. Fitting, vaguely, into a post-Avalanches Australia personified by Architecture In Helsinki, Cut Copy, and Bumblebeez, their unique sound shows little fidelity to the norms of this land.

Initially, Soft Tigers weren't, like, actually a band. They first started making music, in 2002, on cracked sampling software, after they'd met at an Avalanches show.

However, it wasn't until early in 2004, when they decided to fuse their dense webs of musical detritus into songs, that Soft Tigers were born in earnest. Their currently creating a buzz with their singles 'M.A.R.I.A and 'Karate', their album Gospel Ambitions is in stores on October 13.
