Title: Another Animal (Ugly Kid Joe singer with Godsmack musicians)
Post by: DMJ on May 10, 2006, 06:45:39 PM
anyone heard of this sideproject? the self titled album "Another Animal" is coming out in september, its a Godsmack side project started by ex-Ugly Kid Joe drummer and current Godsmack / Amen drummer Shannon Larkin, and he got Ugly Kid Joe's singer Whit Crane to sing and it also has Godsmack bassist and guitarist, he said it sounds like a mix of Sabbath and Faith No More - Angel Dust era, should be cool, its already recorded and the artwork is being done by the guy who did darkside of the moon.

for more info check out the Ugly Kid Joe Forum http://s8.invisionfree.com/ukj/

Fuckin' A!

UKJ ruled, i even liked the shortlived band Medication.

UKJ were more than one hit wonders, and Whitfield Crane was a top vocalist, he's done 2 cracking covers for Metallica tribute albums, the tracks Welcome Home (Sanitarium) & Master of Puppets were really well done.

Haven't heard any Godsmack to my knowledge.

Still i'll be sure to check this new project out... : ok:

I'm looking forward to this.  I always thought Whitfield Crane was a underestimated singer.
