The Bark and Bite for the Job: New York Times Dragline Review

What: New York Times write-up about Paw and Dragline.

When: June 17, 1993

So What: Highlights …

• “… a quartet of rank beginners from Kansas must be blessed with the confidence of innocents to attempt a similar narrative.”

• “Yes, there are brutal riffs which suggest that here we have yet another bunch of Metallica clones, but guitarist Grant Fitch has a talent for diverting them into choruses that open plaintively and close in squalls of guitar feedback and vocal torment.”

• “Now that grunge has become a movement that grown-ups can understand, rock needs to re-sharpen its claws. Paw have the bark, and the bite, for the job.”
