The Ducky Boys's debut CD is good punk. The Ducksters play oi!, not like Blanks '77 or Oi! Polloi!, but slower. It has an implied social message detailing the pride that people should feel over who they are. "I'll Rise Up" and "I'll Go Back" are the two best songs, and "Cross To Bear" and "Pride" come off the split with the Dropkicks. They do a great cover of Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Bad Moon Rising". There are two songs that are just a waste of space. I hope they regret putting "Regrets" on this, as it is quite boring. Also, "I Don't Give A Shit" is a little too repetitive and unintelligent. If you have to say everything you don't give a shit about, well... Aside from that, it's a pretty strong CD and it wouldn't hurt to check out.
Tracks: 1. I'll Rise Up 2. I Don't Give A Shit 3. Pride 4. The Way It Used To Be 5. Cross To Bear (Walk Proud, Stand Tall) 6. Get Out of the Way 7. Always Be There 8. Nobody's Hero 9. Nobody's Fool 10. I'll Go Back 11. Regrets 12. On My Own 13. What's Wrong 14. The River 15. White Slum 16. Bad Moon Rising (Creedence Clearwater Revival)
