Editor review
Hailing out of Detroit, Michigan, Ugly play rock and roll so cut back from the frills and trappings that you just have to smile at the choice of name. Pretty this sure isn't, this is rock n roll played by a bunch of guys that have cut a record to entertain people, playing their hearts out and loving every single second of it.
Produced by Rick Parashar who has previously worked with Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam and 3 Doors Down, this self titled album kicks out 11 tracks of energy dripping with energy, passion and conviction. Formed out of the ashes of Outspoken and Bridge, both from the American Midwest, and with less than a year together, this album is really pretty damn good.
If you like you rock n roll sans frills, then your going to like this. Imagine Nashville Pussy but without the southern feel, and you pretty much know what these guys are going to sound like, and by the time you get to 'Sex, Drugs and Rock & Roll' you'll know for sure.
Pick of the album? 'The Cats Ass', you just can't fault any band that manage to get a line like 'I Feel Like A Cat in a Dog and Pony Show, and it's so overrated.' into a song, oh and the guitar work kicks ass too!

Donnie Highland - Drums and Backing Vocals
