The Unforgiving Sounds of Maow is a 1996 album by Maow. It was the band's only album.

The album is notable primarily for being Neko Case's first album as a vocalist. Case does not sing all the vocals on the album, however; she shares vocal duties with bandmates Tobey Black and C.C. Hammond.

The album's best-known song, "Ms. Lefevre", is a silly romp celebrating the character "Renee Lefebvre" from Woody Allen's movie What's New, Pussycat? The album also includes covers of songs by Wanda Jackson and Nancy Sinatra.
