7 Short songs with lyrics that dont come more straight up then this. This straight edge band delivers a harshness in a way only a Chicago band could. For the most part these songs pass by in seconds with out any sign of stopping but Duress manage to mix it up with some breakdown mosh parts that are traditional to the genre and keep it fresh with some distant sounding guitar noises. The tracks that stood out to me are ASSHOLE(the lyrics deliver) and the last song GUILT which slows things down a bit but still keeps all that harshness and hatred very clear. If you're not already keep your ears to the ground for more Duress info and releases because Im certain this band is only going to improve.
Released on Underestimated Records in a very small pressing of 300. Japanese style covers complete with obi strip. You can give Duress a listen on their myspace page.
