Noose - It's Your Time EP

Noose are a relatively new vegan straight edge band from Chicago that are not afraid, or apologetic to let their vegan/straight edge flag fly.  This was originally released as a demo tape by the band, but received the vinyl treatment courtesy of REACT! Records.  Noose play a style of hardcore that is similar to early 80's Boston bands like SSD and DYS.  Nice to see a Chicago band getting some exposure. 

The record comes in 3 colors.  Red, Blue, and Black.  The red vinyl I got through REACT!'s pre-order, and the blue vinyl I picked up at their merch table at Sound and Fury.  The black vinyl I haven't gotten around to getting yet. 

200 on Red Vinyl

If you're interested more about what Noose are about, I would recommend reading the interview that Thinking Cap zine did with Bucky (lead singer).  It's very...informative.  Here's the link.  Thinking Cap Fan Zine
