[en] | Sugar (Claw Boys Claw album)

Suga(r), originally stylized as ‘$ugǝ[r]’, is the sixth studio album by Dutch rock band Claw Boys Claw. It’s their first album on EMI productions. It is one of their commercially most successful albums, and musically it sees the former garage band move toward what would be called “swamp rock.”[1] It was the most successful album of their career, reaching No. 26 on 13 February 1993 on the Dutch album chart, and staying on the chart for 10 weeks.[2] Of the three singles that came from the album, the first one, “Rosie,” charted—the first time ever for a Claw Boys Claw single—and reached No. 22 on 30 January 1993.[3]
