It immediately caught my eye because of the Ltd. aspect. One of my all time favorite bands The Radio Dept. insists on it being the abbreviation and not the full name. Something about that makes it much more interesting of a name.

And also because of the Ducks 🦆

There is hunting/wetlands conservatory company called Ducks Unlimited. I was just reading their bio on All Music and the groups away originally called “Ducks Unlimited” but decided to change it to Ducks LTD to avoid any potential legal disputes.

LOL! I don’t understand the 😕😡 reactions. There isn’t much I can do about it now. I didn’t realize that there was an upcoming Bandcamp Friday.

So now you guys have be feeling like an asshole. I looked it up and Looks like Bandcamp typically takes 10% of a purchase (which TBH, seems surprisingly reasonable) meaning Ducks Ltd. lost out on $4 from my purchase.

You guys want me to mail the band a fiver or something?
