AllMusic said that Tooth, Fang & Claw demonstrates "Nugent's further emerging hard rock sound", as well as an intentional shifting away from the blues sound that the Amboy Dukes had displayed on their Polydor recordings and the psychedelia of the band's Mainstream albums; the band does not experiment with their sound on Tooth, Fang & Claw as they had on their previous albums.[1]
