DESPERATE MEASURES RELEASE NEW SINGLE ‘BACK TO THE RATS’
2nd May 2023New Zealand-born, London-based rockers Desperate Measures return May 12th with a banging brand-new single titled ‘Back To The Rats’. Featuring a blazing duel vocal from frontman Eugene Butcher and guitarist Gaff, the song gets to the root of the band’s tight, yet chaotic maelstrom of urgent rock n’ roll and hits hard and fast.
“It’s about finding yourself amongst chaos without fully realizing it, or the consequences at the time,” explains Gaff.
Following the previous single ‘Thinking Of England’, ‘Back To The Rats’ is another taster from the bands’ forthcoming debut album due later this year. Recorded once again with Andy Brook (who has produced, engineered, and toured with the like of Status Quo, Ginger Wildheart, Wonk Unit, and Hayseed Dixie…) at The Brook Studios in Wallington, Surrey, between recordings Desperate Measures have been busying themselves with a host of gigs, playing alongside Killing Joke, The Members, Wingmen, The Boys and Spear Of Destiny, etc.
Desperate Measures will play a special single launch show at London’s Water Rats Theatre on May 12th with friends The Heat Inc and Yur Mum along for the ride! – Tickets available HERE:
