Just 8 months after the release of their debut album, Melbourne Stout Rockers,
Sordid Ordeal have dropped Tigress, the first single from their forthcoming second album which is due out in early 2025.
Tigress is their bluesiest distillation yet; a hot-rodded, highway road-trip banger that represents a more stripped back arrangement for the band, allowing the cut-throat guitars and pounding drums to dominate the tune.

Tigress follows Alastríona, a woman born and raised in a conservative, rural part of New South Wales where there is an iron-clad expectation that women will simply fall in love, marry and have children. She chooses not to follow this path, but instead moves to Sydney to experience the cultural expression of her generation, exploring art, music, culture and sexual indulgence.
In the heaving metropolis of 80’s Sydney she attains independence and self reliance, having her own career and conducting her relationships on her own terms.
‘Tigress’ is a loud, bold statement from a band on a meteoric rise from their origins as local show legends to interstate touring Stout Rock powerhouse. This track and video is a definitive statement that they are well and truly on the campaign trail again.
To celebrate the release of Tigress, Sordid are throwing it a launch party at Stay Gold!
Saturday, October 19
