Broken Bottles (Color Vinyl) [LP]

Desperate Measures - Broken Bottles (Color Vinyl) [LP]

Essential collection of early material from New Zealand punk band Desperate Measures, featuring tracks from the 1984 EP and the Wasted Again album (released in 1982 and 1983 respectively), along with a selection of rare additional tracks. Capturing the raw force of an underground punk scene in full flight, these songs are fast, abrasive, and direct, driven by sharp riffs, pounding drums, and a fiercely independent spirit rooted in the early 1980s. The first retrospective of the band's early years to be released on LP, and issued in celebration of the band's 45th anniversary, Broken Bottles stands as a powerful document of a group whose intensity and attitude continue to resonate well beyond their original scene.
