Ugly Kid Joe will return with a brand new album ‘Uglier Than They Used Ta Be’ and it has some special guests including Australia’s Dallas Frasca.
Ugly Kid Joe had a no 4 hit in Australia with ‘Everything About You’ in 1992 and then went to no 1 in 1993 with the cover of Harry Chapin’s ‘Cats In The Cradle’.
The band split after the 1996 album ‘Motel California’ and returned with their first studio recording ‘Stairway To Hell’ EP in 2013.
Dallas Frasca will feature on a cover of Rare Earth’s ‘Papa Was A Rolling Stone’ and Phil Campbell of Motorhead plays on the Motorhead cover ‘Ace of Spades’.
The new album, which was recorded at JT Studios and Balance Studios in Louisiana under the helm of producer and UKJ guitarist Dave Fortman (Slipknot, Godsmack, Evanescence), is scheduled for digital release in Australia on September 18 via UKJ Records.
The band is now Whitfield Crane (Vocals) and Klaus Eichstadt (Guitars) teamed up with Sonny Mayo (Guitars),Shannon Larkin (Drums), Zac Morris (Drums), Cordell Crockett (Bass) and Dave Fortman (Guitars).
It’s a full circle of sorts,” says Crane. “There was a lot of love and talent in one room and that is exactly what this album sounds like.”
