Australian Powerhouse Blues Rockers 'The Ugly Kings' Set To Release Their 1st Full-Length Album



The Ugly Kings are four powerhouse blues rockers drawing influence from an eclectic and dynamic musical background. They offer a powerful injection of energy and emotion to the modern rock scene, formulating what can only be described as power blues. The catchy riffs and foot stomping rhythm lay the foundations for the deep reaching and soulful emotive vocals. Having one mini-album (Of Sins) & a 7" single (Promised Land) under their belt already, they are thrilled to be signed with Kozmik Artifactz for the release of their debut full length album 'Darkness Is My Home' on Friday the 13th, April 2018.

The Ugly Kings have supported Airbourne on their successful sold out east coast Australia tour in January 2017 with great reviews. They also supported Rival Sons in 2016 on their first Australia headline side-show in Melbourne during the Black Sabbath 'The End' World Tour. The Ugly Kings also supported Papa Roach for two sold out nights in Melbourne, Australia in January 2018.

"What they delivered was something that I was not ready for. A sound that is almost indescribable. It’s as if a mash up of all my favourite artists had been put into a blender and formed this delicious power sludge bluesy stoner rock. Elements of the classics such as Led Zep, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Sabbath, Danzig and a touch of Bowie were mixed in with the modern sounds of The White Stripes, Queens Of The Stone Age, Kylesa & Wolfmother. I was in heaven!" - Rogue, Inc.

"This top-drawer record moves majestically while bar hopping between a plethora of artists and genres including Purple, Danzig, Jack White and everything in between." - OriginalRock

Memorable beats, thunderous bass lines and an electrifying barrage of bluesy ‘grit’ riffs tied with raw and emotive vocals.

For fans of The Doors, Jack White, Black Sabbath, The Black Keys, Royal Blood and Rival Sons.
