bark turning black & peeling off on dormant brugs

Well - they're not fully dormant. They've been trying to put out miniscule growth all winter so far. Which is what they normally do for me. Instead of cutting them back this year, I brought them in full-size. They are about 8' tall. I'm noticing, for the first time in 6 years, that the bark on some of the brugs is turning black and peeling off. What gives? Is this fungal? Should I cut back relentlessly?

thanks!
