Album Notes & Community Reviews
Moving definitively away from their visual-kei origins, 'Six Ugly' marks the Japanese act's full embrace of down-tuned nu-metal grooves and abrasive hardcore elements. Kyo's vocals violently oscillate between soaring melodies and unhinged, guttural screams, signaling the heavier trajectory of their future output.
