San Diego City Beat reviewed ''Ugly Things'' in an article entitled "Mike Stax of Ugly Things: A local scenester's internationally known music magazine."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sdcitybeat.com/article.php?id=423 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.rojaro.com/maginfo.php?mco=ugt )〕 The Lama Workshop editor Patrick Lundborg has stated about ''UT'' and editor Mike Stax: "1980s (music) zines have retired into the great recycling container in the sky (it's down to UT, Shindig!, and Misty Lane now), Mike Stax has managed not only to keep it alive, but expand his trip in various directions, and in the process become one of the very best -- perhaps THE very best -- 1960s-oriented writer out there."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lysergia.com/LamaWorkshop/lamaEternalNow_older.htm )〕 A review of ''Ugly Things'' in Head Press by David Kerekes sums up the publication: "When it comes to garage rock and everything associated with 'wild sounds from past dimensions', there is little to compare to the magnitude that is the mighty Ugly Things." . In "My Rock and Roll Magazine Rack", Mark Boudreau (of rockandrollreport.com) writes: "Absolutely encyclopedic in its knowledge of arcane rock and roll, Ugly Things is a rock and roll fan's delight.". The Mod-Sixties Webring says of ''Ugly Things'', "For fans of '60s beat, punk, R&B, garage, psych and freakbeat Ugly Things magazine has been the place to go for over 15 years". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ugly Things」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
