Menace Beach announce debut album ‘Ratworld’, share ‘Come On Give Up’
Leeds garage punks play DIY’s London all-dayer - they’re putting out a full-length in 2015.
Ryan Needham and Liza Violet’s Menace Beach project is putting its name to a debut album, ‘Ratworld’.
The pair’s first work is coming out on 18th January 2015 via Memphis Industries. It features previously-unveiled tracks ‘Tennis Court’, ‘Fortune Teller’ and ‘Lowtalkin’’, plus a newly shared opening track ‘Come On Give Up’.
Available as a free download, this instantly catchy new number refines their hook-stuffed embrace even further, amounting to what’s head and shoulders their finest song to date. Listen below an LP tracklist and forthcoming UK dates.
