Eight Gigs: Eugene Ugly

In May, indie rockers Eugene Ugly put out Hug Machine, a collection of three catchy, morose-yet-impudent songs they promised were part of a larger album to be released in August of this year. The Boca Vampires is about “family, isolation, alien abductions, cults, murderous children, drugs, cats, Utah,” and other stuff, according to their Bandcamp page. Alas, it turns out people are going to have to wait until November for The Boca Vampires. In the meantime, Eugene Ugly are doing some live shows, so everyone can just calm down. And most likely, they’ll even play more than those three songs. Probably. 1111 H Street, www.facebook.com/eugeneugly.
