Deal Casino’s strong and ever- growing catalog. Fans of My Chemical Romance will enjoy the artsy emotionalism of prolific, prophetic North Jersey rocker Chucky Hugh, whose lat- est EP, “There’s Nothing In This World Under Control,” is an aptly titled release in the midst of a global pandemic. Unfortunately, the damn virus caused the cancel- lation of Chucky’s record release party this weekend, but with two other EPs and an LP under his cre- ative belt, this guy’s a pro and will make it up to his large fan base. The EP opens with a quasi-title track actually entitled “Undead” (just a slight mutation, and we’re dealing with zombies here, folks). He belts the line that alludes to the LP with a combination of the sad- ness and rage that the world feels right now. It will be great to hear this opener live when Chucky’s show opening for Michale Graves of The Misfits at Stanhope House is rescheduled.
