Tigers Jaw released their new songs “Ghost” and “Head Is Like a Sinking Stone” on January 7th, offering an exciting first glimpse into their upcoming album. Both tracks feel deeply rooted in the band’s signature sound while still showing growth and emotional maturity.
“Head Is Like a Sinking Stone” leans into hazy nostalgia, with shimmering guitars and a steady emotional pull that feels introspective without being heavy. It has that familiar Tigers Jaw warmth — the kind of song that feels comforting, like sitting with your thoughts late at night. “Ghost,” on the other hand, is more energetic and jangly, but carries a bittersweet edge. It feels like revisiting an old memory you didn’t realize still had a hold on you, balancing upbeat melodies with quiet reflection.
Listening to these songs back-to-back made me feel both nostalgic and grounded, like reconnecting with a band that’s grown alongside its listeners. They capture that mix of familiarity and emotional honesty that Tigers Jaw does so well, making the wait for the full album feel even more worth it.
Along with the new music, Tigers Jaw have also announced an upcoming tour in support of the album, giving fans the chance to experience these songs live. If these singles are any indication, the tour is bound to be cathartic, intimate, and full of moments that remind you why this band continues to resonate years later.
