D.U.D.S – Of A Nature or Degree

Beschreibung

„When I was first told about Duds, it came with the considered opinion that the guys were far from what you’d call ‘careerists‘.
‚They don’t take themselves too seriously‘ was another comment. I could have taken this as a warning that they weren’t in it for the right reasons – but that couldn’t be further from the truth. From my perspective Duds simply won’t bend over backwards to „get on“. They do what they do and you can take it or leave it. I took it – with both hands…with a vice-like grip. They have the invention and urgency of Edinburgh legends The Fire Engines. The Post-Punk ethic. Short songs, short sets = short album.
They’re one of the most thrilling bands I’ve seen in years – and the fact that they’re releasing this brilliant piece of work on the Castle Face label adds the last piece of a perfect ‘outsider‘ jigsaw puzzle. Duds sitting alongside Oh Sees, Ty Segall, White Fence, Useless Eaters et al. THERE IS A GOD!” – Marc Riley, June 2017
