Relix Magazine Reviews Awwww, Schucks

Relix reviews The Uglysuit’s new album, Awwww, Schucks in their September issue. The review is below or click HERE to read it online.

“There’s an ever-present urgency throughout Awwww, Schucks, the latest and supposedly final release by the Oklahoma-based band, The Uglysuit. At the heart of this energy is a seemingly ubiquitous, driving rhythm that serves to ignite the album’s most soaring moments (“On We Go,” “Oh the Tides”). The existential lyrics are equally pressing are: “I’ve searched the vast depths of oceans and found that nothing lasts” (“1902, Deep Ocean”). But no song attains a more perfect fusion of elements than “The Freeworld,” an epic, seven-minute conglomeration of twists and turns that take listeners from the throes of self-reflection to the heights of enlightenment. With its compelling balance between the reverb-drenched, ethereal rock of Fleet Foxes and the animated instrumentation of Jukebox the Ghost, Awwww, Schucks proves to be a remarkable album.”
