Duds

Duds are a four-piece post-punk and no wave group from Manchester, United Kingdom, formed in early 2015. They are described as a self-contained band built around rhythmically driven playing and focused musicianship. Their music is associated with post-punk, no wave, dance-punk and art punk, and their lyrics address the human condition as well as arbitrary and sometimes unusual scenarios and themes.

The band develops a distinctive sound from its line-up and approach, with a focus on sharp rhythmic energy. They remain an active Manchester group within the UK post-punk and no wave scene.
