about

(english below)
"Desperate Measures" marca el primer álbum de estudio de la banda desde su triunfal regreso de 2015 con el disco “It’s Not Me, It's’s You”, que acumuló gran cantidad de buenísimas críticas destacadas en todo el mundo y reavivó la larga historia de amor de sus fans con esta leyenda del punk-rock australiano.
Según su frontman, Link Meanie, el título del álbum “Desperate Measures” refleja los drásticos avances que damos para soportar el estado actual del mundo.
"Desperate Measures es el título de un álbum para esta época, ya sea aplicable al surgimiento del antiintelectualismo de derechas, la negación asociada de un inminente desastre ambientalmente apocalíptico o la lobotomía cultural de los medios populares de hoy", dice Link. “Es difícil ver un camino a través de este miasma de negatividad ilógica sin ... (redoble de tambores) ... medidas desesperadas ".

The Meanies new record Desperate Measures is available for pre-order now in Europe via FOLC Records.

Desperate Measures marks the first studio album from the band since their victorious 2015 comeback record It’s Not Me, It’s You amassed a slew of standout album reviews across the country and reignited Australia’s longstanding love affair with the influential punk-rock outfit.

According to frontman Link Meanie, the album title Desperate Measures reflects the drastic strides we take to stomach the current state of the world.

“Desperate Measures is an album title for the times, whether it be applicable to the rise of right wing anti-intellectualism, the associated denial of impending environmentally apocalyptic disaster or the cultural lobotomy of today's popular media,” says Link. It's hard to see a way through this miasma of illogical negativity without… (drum roll)... desperate measures.”
