The Duke Spirit are living proof you don't need a major label or fleets of Press Officers handling you if you have good word of mouth.

Around since 2003, The Duke Spirit are a UK band leaning in that alternative/post-punk/psych/noise genre.

Tonight's track, This Ship Was Built To Last comes from 2008. I believe it's off their first album.

Sadly, they aren't very well known here in the States and have concentrated all their efforts on getting some visibility in Europe. At the moment they are working on their third album and should have some good material available before too long. Check out their MySpace page for more info.
