The Ugly Kings
The Ugly Kings formed in Melbourne, Australia around 2014, delivering a sound the band describes as "power blues" — a combination of darkened heavy blues, raw punk energy, and a metallic rock edge that draws on the directness of The White Stripes and the weight of Queens of the Stone Age. Their debut Darkness Is My Home was received as one of the standout Australian heavy rock releases of its year, and their sophomore album Strange, Strange Times, released via Napalm Records in August 2021, extended their reach internationally. The two-piece format gives their recordings a sparse but punishing character consistent with the stripped-down blues rock tradition.
