Ugly Deal

06/27/07
. (PR) Detroit-based rock four-piece Ugly has signed with Rock Ridge Music to release its self-titled album on October 9th. With less than a year under its belt, Ugly already has an impressive fan base all across the Midwest. Born from the blue-collar smoke stacks of Detroit, Michigan, Ugly is stitched from the same thread as infamous Detroit rockers such as Iggy Pop, Alice Cooper, Ted Nugent and Kid Rock. Heavy, shredding guitar riffs combined with slamming, skin-penetrating drum beats meet Teubl’s vocals (which sound as if Ronnie Van Zant, Danny Joe Brown and Jim Morrison just shared a bottle of whiskey and are singing from the bottom of their ugly souls).

“Ugly” was produced by Rick Parashar (Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains, 3 Doors Down), and is a record full of good, old-fashioned, in-your-face rock ‘n’ roll. Says Parasher: "Working with Ugly was such a fantastic experience. These guys know how to rock, and they play with such heart and soul. It was a pleasure to be involved in the making of this amazing record." Prior to the release of the full-length, Rock Ridge will be releasing a digital-only single, “Sex, Drugs And Rock & Roll” on August 7th.
