For those of you who haven't read our many musings on Pug, he is one of Chicago's most unique artists, due in part to his characteristically gravely voice and Bob Dylan-esque guitar stylings. For those who are a fans of Dylan or his most blatant contemporary, Kristian Matsson, better known to his band's moniker, Tallest Man on Earth, this is most definitely the music for you. Though was Pug is not really covering any new ground on this seven-song-selection no one can criticize the man for his obvious and genuine passion for his music and the simple yet universal stories that each song so eloquently surmises.
