Tigertailz – Make Me Bleed
Biography
Early years (1986-1990)
Part of the nascent glam metal scene in the late 1980s, Tigertailz first line-up issued debut album Young And Crazy in 1987. The album featured vocalist Steevi Jaimz, guitarist Jay Pepper, bassist Pepsi Tate (Huw Justin Smith (1965-2007)) and drummer Ace Finchum. The debut created interest in the band and spawned the anthemic single Livin’ Without You.
As the band toured the album it became clear that vocalist Steevi Jaimz was not as committed to the band as might be hoped, and several instances of fighting due to the influence of drink were recorded. The band felt they had no choice but to part company with Jaimz in order to progress. They recruited Kim Hooker to replace Jaimz in time for follow-up album ‘Bezerk’ which was eventually released to great critical acclaim in 1990 on the Music For Nations label.
Commercial success (1990-1995)
Hooker’s vocals and stage presence took the band to a new commercial level. Prior to the release of Bezerk, the band re-recorded Livin Without’ You with Hooker and released it as a single. Bezerk saw the band breakthrough as a headline act, selling out medium sized venues and delivering three singles, Love Bomb Baby, Noise Level Critical and Heaven. The album itself made it into the UK Top 40 and Tigertailz frequently found themselves on the cover of leading rock magazines.

I think they're quite nice. Their debut record with Steevi Jaimz is good and the Bezerk album with Kim Hooker is cheesy, something which I like about that record. They are underestimated.
