Ugly Kid Joe--As Ugly As They Wanna Be

Ugly Kid Joe--As Ugly As They Wanna Be (1991) Rating--9.0

This small-label debut from the band actually made big waves for them, backed by the oft-MTV-played hit "Everything About You". The songs are thrashy and sassy, and display the wit and humor of the carefree band members. Mixed into all of that is some pretty good musicianship as well. There are only five songs, but all are true highlights and rockers, as the band struts in a Skid Row, Motley Crue manner. Short and sweet, but pure attitude.
HOT CHOPS: The band does a heavy, sharp cover of Sabbath's "Sweet Leaf"--definitely not to be missed.
TRACK LIST: Madman/Whiplast Liquor/Too Bad/Everything About You/Sweet Leaf/Funk Fresh Country Club
