Ugly is the second studio album by American alternative metal band Life of Agony, released on 10 October 1995 through Roadrunner Records. It followed their 1993 debut River Runs Red and was produced by Steve Thompson. It became the band's first record to reach the Billboard 200, where it peaked at 153.

It also marks the last album with original drummer Sal Abruscato before he left after the 1996 tour. He came back for the River Runs Again reunion in 2003, and departed for good in 2018. In 2025 the band toured worldwide for the album's 30th anniversary, playing it in full, which says a good deal about how much it still means to their fans.
