"Transylvania Baby" reviews:



"Initially coming off as a sort of Soundgarden-meets-Motörhead hybrid, the first taste of L.A. rockers "Who Rides The Tiger" can be a touch difficult to digest. When one delves further into that which is Transylvania Baby though, a whole new world and list of connotations arise. Yes, they are plugged into the detuned groove from a time when Kim Thayil was cool and they, as any self-respecting rocker should, have a soft spot for Lemmy. However, as the band embrace their grit and sleaze, it's clear they have far more in common with High On Fire and Fu Manchu than anything related to plaid and Doc Martens. Just shy of sloppy, more unkempt than Orange Amplification and with just enough menace to be unnerving, Transylvania Baby finds WRTT on the heels of apocalyptic dirt metal's new guard." (Exclaim.ca)



"On the first listen, Transylvania Baby presents itself as a sleaze-rock gem, with distortion, feedback and sludgy guitars steering the course. With swaggering confidence, malevolent imagery and a sexy tone conjuring images of a cheap, tawdry motel, Who Rides The Tiger cuts a deep line in terms of first impact. The audio serration disappears with repeated listens as songs overflow from one to the next and the formerly pungent, gritty taste is diluted. Individually, songs like “Geronimo”, “Cut You”, and “Where The Sidewalk Ends” are heavy and amped with raw emotion and a dirty, inviting lust. In small doses, the dizzying and dark mood is irresistible." (Beatroute Magazine)
