Vug - s/t - LP (Colored Vinyl)

Vug - s/t - LP Llimited first pressing with transparent silver vinyl plus Poster and Donwload Code

With VUG, it should be clear after just a few bars what’s on the menu: heavy 70s rock. Blues rock, proto-metal, heavy and dark... But their self-titled debut is anything but a bland rehash of their influences; instead, it clearly has its own distinct character.  Above all, though, they’ve found their own sound within the genre.

Don’t lump VUG in with the ethereal intellectuals and delicate ’70s flower children—instead, they rock with their legs spread wide, stay rough-and-tumble,   have certainly seen a few Scandinavian bands, know the city map of Motor City Detroit by heart, and have probably also heard one or two bands from 90s Seattle. Vug have their own style. A dark rock that reveals a breathtaking play of colors and all sorts of different structures within—just like a “Vug.”

A band that has long been known as an insider tip in a scene that, while small, is international and all the more vibrant for it. But as they say, good things take time, and it took a while to get to their self-titled debut! Perhaps this delay is also due to the fact that the drums are handled by the busy Nick DiSalvo, who is otherwise the frontman for ELDER.
