Imagine Demon's Claws crawling from city to city, sleeping in their clothes, playing gigs each night in an endless string of backstreet bars, the audiences and venues blurring into a seamless film reel of shows and hangovers. If that image raises a grin, then so will this album.

Demon's Claws "Satan's Little Pet Pig" LP/CD
This one rushes right out of the pen with one of the songs of the year in "Shadow of A Castle" (which also appeared on last year's 'Live in Spring Branch Texas' 12" by the way), and keeps the momentum going from there. A real bush hog of a release, rootin' for rootsy' garage-folk-psych truffles in a creepily psychedelic forest. I have nothing smarter to say than that I always feel these guys have a distinct Canadian sound, sort of like a Guess Who meets Scat Rag Boosters meets Neil Young meets Stompin Tom Connors. And instead of hitting ye olde sophomore slump they manage to take their sound one step further, recording a great LP whereas their first full length was merely good. They've filled in the gaps on this one. This reminds me of when we used to visit an old cabin in Northern Ontario and take mushrooms and drink tons of Labatt's and go night fishing. This is what we should've been playing instead of Sabbath. Well, no, we should've played this AFTER we listened to Sabbath. To reiterate, far better than their debut and worth a look. Scary, as in scary-good at times, and also scary as in "There's something in those woods!" (RK)
