“Kick ASS!! OnStage Bookings has developed dimensional travel and explored the nether regions to bring you Ozzy's illegitimate love-child from an alternate reality!!! Who would have thought he'd be tearing it UP!! with AUG in New Jersey!!! Check these guys out!”

— OnStage Booking & Promotions

“In an age of evolving rock music, Aug is a band that is keeping their formula the same. Perhaps if their album, "20 Years in Hell" came out two decades ago, it would sell millions of copies, especially with Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath fans. So what do you do with original music that sounds like a hit album? You perform with national acts like Joe Lynn Turner. Aug opens up for the former Rainbow frontman at Dingbatz in Clifton on May 18. ”

— KELLY NICHOLAIDES, NORTHJERSEY.COM

“A new full length CD release from the North Jersey hard rock band “AUG” has been unleashed upon the earth. This album is 9 tracks of hard rock excellence. While Aug’s voice is often compared to Ozzy’s due to a eerie similarity in their tone. There is no doubt the power and range is all Aug. Catchy riffs and big chorus’s fill the album with anthemic songs such as Skeleton Crew and Holdin’ On. The shredding and soulful playing of Tommy Strange leaves him second to none. Having spent the past few weeks in the top 10 of Reverbnations Hot 500 Rock charts the band expects great things from this album. If your looking for 50 minutes of great hard rock/metal in the vein of Ozzy/KISS/The Cult/ Maiden check them out at www.augrocks.com or www.revebnation.com/aug. Also look for the sorrowful and hypnotizing acoustic demo of Numb, a bonus track only available on a album purchase. Available now on Cdbaby, Itunes and soon at just about every other internet music site! ”

— EVIL BASTARD MUSIC

“ Outstanding production & excellent guitar work! "Magic" definitely grabs you & takes you on a mystical journey! Rock on! ”

— MICHAEL LEE BAND, REVERBNATION

“ I've walked through Hell's Fire, and I saw the Axe of Aug cutting heads with the Devil above the feiry infero. I can't tell you how it ended, but there was a flash of light and a big boom. Aug Rocks. ”

— Mr.LP, REVERBNATION

“AUG WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALLL THEIR FANS WORLD WIDE FOR PUTTINGS US #3 IN THE WORLD IN REVERBNATION'S HOT 500 ROCK CHARTS !!! WORLD DOMINATION !!!!!”

— AUG, Reverbnation

“Imagine A Hot Stripper was Gang raped by Ozzy, Guns N Roses & KISS; This band would be their offspring! Pure Hard Rock at It's Best!”
