Now playing: Pug FugliesPug Fuglies originally started as Splatter Fest, Dallas resident Cody Richeson's experimentation in synthesized death metal/thrash/grindcore. After he began to explore other styles of music, Splatter Fest was no longer a relevant name, and something much less appealing had to take its place. He later recruited Samantha Smith and Clint "Uncle Jackie" Buffin so that the band would have three members.
