Hungry Sally & Other Killer Lullabies is the second studio album by Tito & Tarantula, released in 1999. The album was their first to feature drummer Johnny "Vatos" Hernandez, who had been hired as a percussionist shortly after the release of their debut album, Tarantism, replacing Nick Vincent. Hernandez, who previously had played in the new wave band Oingo Boingo, provided a more solid, powerful drumming sound for the band, as opposed to Vincent's highly blues-influenced style. The album also featured the departure of multi-instrumentalist Lyn Bertles, who the band chose not to replace, reducing it to a four-piece. Instead, all the violin and mandolin parts were recorded by session musician Petra Haden. The band later elected to hire Andi Figueroa for the position when they went on tour, who played on their next album, Little Bitch, as a session musician. AllMusic stated in its review of the album, "Tito and Tarantula stretch out beyond the dark blues idiom they explored to the depths on Tarantism, though tracks like 'Bleeding Roses' are no less dark or moody."
