If you like Tim Burton’s imagery and Rasputina’s lyrics and wish Dead Dolls were better quality than cereal box toys, Ugly Shyla has hand-made creepy dolls.
Members of Will Haven and Oddman playing sludge metal like EyeHateGod. Screamo vocals, trudging riffery, and the odd d-tuned swing of an ogre lumbering along.
First studio album in 12 freakin’ years. Signed to Warner Bros in 1990, had a couple hits, were on Headbanger’s Ball, and landed a song in Wayne’s World.
An odd mix of light indie rock and noisy indie rock. I’m too high-strung to sit through the quiet songs, but “Design the Fight” and “Metal” are intriguing.
Eight years in the making, demo deals with Columbia and Immortal. They’re not just another melodic punk band with layered harmonies, there’s substance here.
