Desperate Measures Share “Seven Sisters” From Upcoming “Sublime Destruction” Album

High energy London, UK punk and rollers Desperate Measures will release their brand new album, Sublime Destruction, on March 22nd via Cadiz Music. Loaded with eleven personal and political, hook laden anthems, including the singles Thinking Of England, Back To The Rats and the albums title track, Sublime Destruction was written over the last two years and during the pandemic and was recorded with Andy Brook at The Brook Studios. Desperate Measures will be celebrating the release of Sublime Destruction with a special album launch gig at London’s The Lexington on March 30th with The DeRellas and Thrill City.

From the opening roar of Back To The Rats, the Sex Pistols riffarama of The Rich-Tual and the danced-up Stooges grooves of Enjoy The Ride, through to the Psychedelic Furs like Untouchable, Sublime Destruction is anything but sublime. Instead, it’s a huge statement of intent from a band that back up their in-your-face attitude 100% on the stage. Having just completed a roaring UK tour with Cleveland, Ohio punk legends the Dead Boys, and currently in the midst of a dual headline tour with friends Janus Stark, Desperate Measures have blasted out another smouldering track ahead of the album’s release next week in Seven Sisters, their epic ode to their North London manor. That sense of anguish is perfectly channelled in the song’s moody, fiery heaviness. “The money train never stops, and you never see the cops on Seven Sisters…” 

“I live and work on Seven Sisters Road, one of London’s most deprived streets. There’s glimmers of hope against the odds but desperation and despair are always near.” (frontman Eugene Butcher)
