Death to Traitors is the second studio album by the American grunge band Paw. It was released in 1995 through A&M Records.[6][7] While the album received favorable reviews from the press, sales quickly fizzled due to a lack of promotional support from the band's label. Paw was dropped by A&M in 1996, before their contract was fulfilled.
Singles from the album include "Hope I Die Tonight," "Seasoned Glove," "Max the Silent," and the five-track promotional EP "Traitors and Covers."
