    I hope all these glowing reviews don't let me down. I bought In Bocca Al Lupo because I heard the single "Brother." What a piece of crap that album was. I can't believe I paid for it. Thank god for illegal downloading. Sorry Murder By Death. You're going to have to redeem yourself to earn my money again.

  1. It may sound at first like the makings of a mediocre goth album, but the band's combination of a taut, tense, elegant delivery and poetic lyrics breathes life into each of Red of Tooth and Claw's songs.

    With Red Of Tooth And Claw they've finally realized the full potential they've been hinting toward all those years--and like all great stories, it's not always pretty. [Apr 2008, p.158]

    It sounds like the freak show has just rolled into town--better get your tickets quick, because this is one spectacle well worth the price of admission. [Winter 2008, p.103]
