Tiger Army is the first full-length release by
California psychobilly band
Tiger Army, released on October 26, 1999. The band had previously recorded a vinyl EP (the
Temptation EP) in 1996, and came to the attention of
Tim Armstrong, the owner of
Hellcat Records. Armstrong contacted Tiger Army's lead singer,
Nick 13, interested in the band recording an album. Although Nick 13 did not initially have a confirmed line-up for the band, the studio line-up consisted of Nick 13, drummer
Adam Carson (borrowed from
AFI) and bassist Rob Peltier, from
The Quakes.
