sweetest tongue, sharpest tooth: a red riding hood fanmix
Title: sweetest tongue, sharpest tooth
Subject: A Red Riding Hood Fanmix
Summary: This is more about the fairy tale than the recent movie (and the not so great book). I have always loved fairy tales and wolves so the various versions of Red Riding Hood have always intrigued me. I made the mix to help inspire me while writing a slightly steampunk version of the tale. Heavily influenced by Company of Wolves, crappy werewolf movies, Supernatural, various fairy tale versions and Angela Carter (Company of Wolves was based on her stories in the book The Bloody Chamber).
Notes: I can't edit images to save my life, therefore you get shoddy cover art. I made the mix for myself, but thought others might find it entertaining too. Fourteen tracks on a zipped file.

Little girls, this seems to say,
Never stop upon your way.
Never trust a stranger-friend;
No one knows how it will end.
As you’re pretty, so be wise;
Wolves may lurk in every guise.
Handsome they may be, and kind,
Gay, or charming never mind!
Now, as then, ‘tis simple truth-
Sweetest tongue has sharpest tooth!
