So long as there are beer-guzzling mulletheads howling for more cowbell, the sound of classic rock will always be in style. Pride Tiger's closest Canadian cousins would be The Illuminati (R.I.P.), except instead of the fuzzed-out stoner staring at the cracks on the wall, they're the jubilant drunk tossing an arm around your shoulder and slurring their affections for you. There's a whole lotta love in Pride Tiger's riffage, evoking classic rockers like Led Zeppelin and Thin Lizzy. Titles like "The White Witch Woman Blues" and "Wizard's Council" immediately scream Page and Plant, but with even more southern blues boogie tossed in to the mix. At 13 tracks, the length ends up weighing down their debut, especially once all the songs start sounding pretty much the same. The first three songs have little to no variation, although they chose the perfect album opener in the roaring "Let 'Em Go." But you won't even notice once the headbanging starts.
