Emerging in 1978 as part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, English rockers Tygers of Pan Tang employ a muscular blend of melody and might that falls somewhere between Def Leppard and Saxon. After debuting in 1980 with the raw, chart-topping Wildcat, the band issued a string of successful LPs with more commercial aspirations. Label disputes ate up the next few years, putting a damper on their ascension, but they returned with a retooled lineup in 1985. The group ceased operations two years later, but officially re-formed in 1999 around guitarist and co-founder Robb Weir, who guided the band through the ensuing decades on studio albums like Animal Instinct (2008), Tygers of Pan Tang (2016), and Bloodlines (2023).
Members of Tygers of Pan Tang include, or have included, John Sykes, Steve Lamb, Jess Cox, Neil Shepherd, and Steve Thompson.
