TYGERS OF PAN TANG, also eine der großen alten NWOBHM Bands, veröffentlichen gerade ihre neue Single `Edge Of The World` digital und auch als Lyricvideo. Die Band schickt damit einen ersten Ausblick auf ihren neuen Longplayer, der im Frühling veröffentlicht werden soll. Inhaltlich geht es dabei noch einmal um die höchst seltsame Siutuation wähhren der Pandemie.
Sänger Jack Meille lässt uns Wissen:
„Based on Robb’s riff, the new song shows the great songwriting talent of Francesco who came up with the Spanish-flavoured section and the melodic chorus. „This song sums up the ultimate Tygers sound: heavy and yet melodic!„.
Drummer Craig Ellis fügt hinzu: „The lyrics were inspired by the unprecedented, strange and worrying pandemic circumstances that each and every one of us suddenly found ourselves in, literally, one more step and we’d be forever falling„.

Lyrics:
I’ve walked these desert lands I’ve come so far
Through empty streets under abandoned stars
All the oceans have dried and gone
There’s no one, nothing’s left I don’t where I belong
I’m standing at the edge of the world
Looking out from the edge of the world
There’s nothing left beyond the edge of the world
Just one more step and I’ll be forever falling
I shed a tear for my fellow man
Just like me they sacrificed their souls
We saw things we’d never seen before
The day of reckoning had come to take us all
Chorus
Solo
The Gates of Hades stand before me now
This raging hell before my very eyes
The howling terrifies my mind, my soul
There’s no escape from this place
This very place that I despise
Chorus
A shroud of darkness as the light slowly fades
When I return this earth will burn
Till the end of days
The edge of the world
The edge of the world
