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 and landed a pair of hits with "Hellbound" and a fiery cover of the Leiber & Stoller-penned "Love Potion No. 9." Since their reformation, the band have released studio albums like Animal Instinct (2008), Tygers of Pan Tang (2016), and Bloodlines (2023). During their career, Tygers have graced festivals such as Wacken Open Air, Reading and Leeds...and now Hammerdown!
