4.0 out of 5 stars A solid offering from a great, underappreciated band..., May 8, 2002

Having been a Paw fan from the start, this release gave me the thrills I was looking for. Growth lyrically & musically are obvious from the lead-in to the lead-out on this disc. The gritty, catchy and naughty "One Handed..." is a power track that you'll growl along with, "Blow Wind" will leave you remembering an experience you never had and "Naiad" will tug at you the way that "Couldn't Know" did on Dragline. I'm only luke-warm on "Oily Rags," but only because I've always listened to Paw for Mark Hennessy's voice and not Grant Fitch's. Grant's not a bad vocalist, but he's not the powerhouse that Mark is. Rock & Roll with a hungry edge- that's what Paw will provide you with. Intelligent lyrics about interesting things. No wonder they don't get airplay anymore!
Enjoy this offering, there may not be more from these guys... Check out the Paw egroup if you're a fan- info, bootlegs and more for the diehard Paw fan.

4.0 out of 5 stars where are they now?, August 23, 2003

PAW, were one of my favourite bands in the 90's. Somehow missed out of the grunge explosion (PAW's vocals give mr vedder a run for his money) Imagine eddie mixed with Mark Lanegan and a ton of agression and country thrown in, and you have an idea (dont let the country put you off.) PAW deserved to be so big. I put them up there with alice in chains, tool etc. Where are they now?? I would love it if they released some new material. back to the review.... this ep is not as strong as their fisrt 2 albums. The songs are awsome, but the production on the vocals dont do them any justice. They kind of sound like early clutch, which isn't a bad thing, just less PAW sounding. so, start off with the 2 lp's, and then top it off with this cd.

I haven't heard many C.D's that after you listen to it you think to yourself "wow" I only hope that Paw put's out another album because I would be a little [angry] as well quite a few other people as well.
