The cover art for both versions of Coral Fang reflects the band's ham-fisted tendencies: the regular artwork features woodcut-like illustrations of bleeding, nude, and scantily-clad women, often pregnant, with razorblades for heads (if they have any at all).
Coral Fang 's second half is less dramatic than its gut-wrenching first half, which is both a relief and a letdown.
Coral Fang has its fair share of flaws, but it's impassioned enough to have plenty of bite despite them.

  BBC Manchester - Music - The Distillers - Coral Fang
Coral Fang is a very good album and i will be lisetning to it for a long time, but you should try listening to their first 2 albums as these are infinitely better, maybe because they're more like the original sound that the band had.
Coral Fang to me sounds like it is trying to appeal to a wider audience which, dont get me wrong, is a good thing, but I personally prefer their original, rougher, punkier sound.
Coral Fang is a step forward for the Distillers, Brody's gravelly voice is accentuated even more on this album and they drawn from their arch enemies Rancid's influence to produce a marvellous punk rock record.

Coral Fang is more deliberate, from its hard-rock sheen (provided by alt-rock vets Gil Norton and Andy Wallace) to its cover image of a crucified woman.
This is Dalle's "suffering savage" album, in which she invites her fans deeper inside the struggle to survive the battlegrounds of romance, art, and womanhood.
Dalle's voice is a potent weapon, capable of pissy shrieks and soul-baring whispers, but her guitar work is blunter, and the band follows her lead, grinding and bashing any potential bit of melody into gristle.

 PunkROCKS.net CD Review - Distillers, The - Coral Fang
Her vocals, once almost a carbon copy of her former namesake's, prove to be quite smooth, and when mixed with the gruff screams you are used to, the package becomes much more complete.
Coral Fang is not as "punk fucking rock" as the band's other two releases (I'm sure that will offend a few die-hards), and I couldn't be happier.
This is a solid and fun disc that shows the Distillers as more than just a derivative punk rock act trading on someone else's name.

 The Distillers (Coral Fang) mxdwn.com review by Mike Verzella
Coral Fang, their third full-length, is cleaner and not as heavy as their previous albums, but that doesn’t mean the Distillers are going the way of so many other punk bands before them.
Fang comes packed with personality and is still dug in deep with their roots.
Fang continues the tough punk attitude of the Distillers, and don’t let the new label fool you — this great band’s refined sound and growing potential demand a lot of respect.

 Rolling Stone : Coral Fang : Review
Seven of the eleven songs on Coral Fang mention blood, seven mention death, and references to things like biting, ripping and beheading abound.
But in light of Armstrong's separation from her husband, Tim Armstrong of Rancid, it's hard not to hear Coral Fang as a breakup album.
Behind the cryptic goriness and the veneer of rage on the opening track, "Drain the Blood," there is a bruised and bandaged heart.

 Distillers Coral Fang / Exco CD
A fiercely passionate juggernaut of punk-fueled rock & roll, CORAL FANG goes straight for the throat from the opening surge of "Drain the Blood." The Distillers are the street-worn vehicle of Brody Dalle, who exorcises her former surname, Armstrong (as in Tim Armstrong of Rancid), in almost every hard-charging song on FANG.
A welcome antidote to the faux angst peddled by many bands, CORAL FANG proves that the Distillers can channel real rage and frustration into some seriously potent music.
No es un mal disco: "The hunger", "Coral fang" y "Death sex" (una canción de 11 minutos) están muy buenas.

FANGS AWAY Australian punkette Dalle parades her angry side in The Distillers' latest
Vocally, though, the relocated Australian punkette shreds her throat with the best of them, lurching, like Courtney Love, from a ghostly whisper to a phlegmy roar within seconds.
As she did on the band's two prior indie-label releases, Dalle wails graphic, visceral lyrics that describe the end of a relationship as a grisly experience ripped from the goriest of action films.

 The Distillers: Coral Fang - PopMatters Music Review
In the wake of grunge, Jett pumped up her already-pumped-up sound and collaborated with disciples like Kathleen Hanna, creating an album that, on the surface, sounded harder and louder than anything she'd done before.
The difference, though, is that Dalle doesn't have Jett's unselfconscious penchant for pop (Jett, even before she achieved an icon's impunity from criticism, covered -- bless her - the Dave Clark Five on her debut).
Coral Fang has more of a typical punk ambiguity -- all right, outright hostility -- towards pop happiness.

Coral Fang has also been known to be used as slang for Heroine Needles, or periphenilia of that sort.
well if u think of coral as being beautiful, adn a fang as being dangerous(piercing), then u have a contradition that transends lots of human conditions, where alot of our favorite stuff is a contradiction in itself, luv is beautiful and it stings, we want it even thou we know it will only hurt us
coral is a shade of red thats kinda pinkish...so i was thinking its something coral colored...and then fang is obviously referring to something piercing of some sort...and then i got the thought of it being a penis...lmfqao

Armstrong, though, can't hide her artistic debt to Love: that scarifying rasp, the gory anatomical metaphors, and, most importantly, a knack for converting the punk du jour into ultra-commercial rock.
Coral Fang is at once punchy and overwrought, and blessed with some extremely good, if slightly monotonous, tunes.

The bottom line is: it is worth listening to and the Distillers have carved out a place for themselves.
Coral Fang is way more than a punk album.
Punk influences and guitar hooks are a-plenty, but the album contains (gasp!) some great melodic rock hooks (the chorus of “Dismantle Me”) and even some great harmonies, once Brody drops the I-swallowed-razor-baldes method of singing - she can carry a tune, and showcases it well (ie.

Le viusel de couverture n'est pas la seule différence entre les deux versions de l'excellent Coral Fang qui ont été commercialisées, puisque celle-ci comprend un manuel bourré d' artworks accompagnant les paroles des chansons.
L'autre "visuel" ne comprend que quelques mots (que l'on peut d'ailleurs apercevoir dans le clip de "Drain The Blood") préçisant qu'il ne s'agit pas là de la véritable "version" de Coral Fang, l'originale ayant été jugée trop explicite pour être commercialisée en grande surface.

Helped by their phenomenal live performances, they've been a main attraction on the Warped and Lollapalooza tours, as well as playing with the likes of Sick Of It All, Garbage and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Recorded at the Site studio in Marin County, California, and produced by Gil Norton (Foo Fighters, Pixies, Dashboard Confessional) the band's third album - and first for Sire/Warners - 'Coral Fang', finds The Distillers in typically uncompromising form, spewing forth 11 ferocious slabs of pure punk rock.
A frothy mix of blood, broken glass and rusty razor blades, standout tracks include the corrosive 'Drain The Blood', the feral 'Coral Fang', and the the raw, in-your-face closer, 'Deathsex'.
