Red of Tooth and Claw

With eight years of refining their sound and vision, Murder By Death rolled out of the gates fully realized in 2000, playing a blend of rocking Americana noir and dramatic Post-Punk that erased old style and audience boundaries. With their fourth CD, Red of Tooth and Claw, the Bloomington, Indiana, quartet are emerging as true artists in the zero-boundary sense: cinematic storytellers whose albums come together in an essential whole, and players whose jaw-dropping performances on record make you yearn for the chance to experience their energy up close and in person. Recorded with Grammy-winning producer Trina Shoemaker (Queens Of The Stone Age, Emmylou Harris, Iggy Pop) at Dark Horse studios in Tennessee, the Vagrant debut captures the drama and nuance of MBD's sound without compromising a lick of the band's energy.
