Bang Tango’s “Untied and True” captures a rough-edged slice of early ’90s hard rock from the band’s second album, Dancin’ on Coals (1991). Released as a single, the track highlights the group’s signature mix of sleazy glam attitude and funk-tinged grooves, a sound that helped distinguish them during a crowded era for hard rock. Produced by John Jansen and released through MCA/Geffen, the song earned modest attention and reinforced Bang Tango’s reputation for swagger-heavy, street-level rock.
The accompanying music video leans into that gritty image with a stripped-down, performance-focused approach. Set largely in a shadowy boxing ring surrounded by chain-link fencing, the clip is punctuated with dancer cutaways that emphasize the song’s pulse and bravado. Visually raw and unapologetic, the video mirrors the band’s charismatic edge at a time when MTV still played a crucial role in breaking rock acts—just as the musical climate was beginning to shift away from the glam-leaning style Bang Tango represented.
