NOW YOU WILL BE BROKEN. This is the epitaph that Prescott Arizona’s
repugnant quartet UGLY preaches with every ounce of boiling vitriol. The
sounds are falling bombs and the words are the aftermath of a
desiccated, burned out world unknown. Everything about this music comes
from a painful place. Conceived in August of 2016, the group set out
with one mission in mind, to make a sonic backdrop that reflects the
current state of the world as they interpret it. The reality we cohabit
is cruel, devious and relentless. An insatiable killer that we elect
daily to guide us anew on a path of modern day barbarism. We all play
our part to make it so… And It seemed fitting that the music reflect the
sentiment.
Taking conceptual queues from bands like SWANS, DYSTOPIA and
NOOTHGRUSH and adding musical complexity and depth to arrive at
something disgusting all its own UGLY has crafted their sound to be
melodic, looming and horrific. Ugly builds a tonal environment that is
at times, angelic… just long enough to win your trust; then tries to
kill you by dragging you to the depths with primal, flesh-upon-gear,
rhythmic upheaval of any notion of good faith and well being.
