Its members were Cornelius Boots, Jonathan Russell, Jeff Anderle, and Aaron Novik, playing what the group refers to as "heavy chamber music.
"[1] The group performed many different genres of music, including avant-garde, gospel, jazz, and heavy metal.
They have performed cover versions of songs by such groups as Radiohead, Primus, Black Sabbath, The Residents, Iron Maiden and Spinal Tap, as well as approximately 50 original compositions.
The group's first CD, Agrippa's 3 Books, which was made possible by a grant from Chamber Music America,[2] was released in August 2005.
Tooth & Claw has a companion CD-ROM which contains archival versions of four of the group's songs, 69 pages of music notation for the CD's 12 songs, eight brief instructional videos, and nine drum machine click track recordings to practice with.
