Chris Caulfield - Ugly
Ugly - Chris Caulfield (Pop) Chris Caulfield delivers a provoking blend of genres with his new track Ugly, featuring an extremely emotive and expressive vocal performance that makes this record a standout. We are of two minds about this track. First, it certainly has pop/R&B sensibility in the instrumental production with the crispy trap percussion and 90s house claps. Behind that, however, is a winding distorted guitar that snakes throughout the track on loop, gluing it together, which reminds us of Blackhole Sun. And that’s where we come to our second view--the vocal production and delivery is very 00s alt rock, or even 90s grunge. Stressed and theatrical, Chris really delivers those lyrics by throwing himself into the song entirely. It’s a passionate project, and one worth listening to.
