This self-titled release was a great introduction point for Cease and Resist and one which shows a lot of promise. Cease and Resist shines a mix of crushing guitar, fast drums, and relevant, inspired lyrics. The production’s really over the top and it works for them. Overly polished but again, it fits the band’s sound. “Pressure” best sums up Cease and Resists overall message on this debut release. The inspired guitar riffs and the Angry and frustrated lyrics along with the driving bass and drums show the bands frustration with the lack of a middle class in todays’ society.

lyrics
Machine gun - debit card.
Brain cell cancer, black and charred.
Reparation: all of my time.
I need so much SHIT, I can't afford to buy.
Get back to work - and don't get thrown away.
This check 'aint going to hold another 20 days.
My list of unpaid debts gets longer each day.
If I can't get ahead, there will be hell to pay.
Pressure high. Money low.
No matter how much I have, I always need more.
Pressure high...
Redundant necessity.
Unyielding misfortune, can't be foreseen.
Protagonist: or so I have claimed.
Infamous villain, in my younger days.
I'm taking greater chance to show that I've changed,
but nobody here knows me by my real name.
Just stay the course and things will be okay,
or burn each other out, if we go on this way.
My future: encrypted.
This uninspired victim -
created: this chaos,
which governs more than not.
My thirst, as always, insatiable. Financially unstable.
Morally: incapable.
Pressure high, money low.
