1. Coming straight outta the Mosh Mansion is Desperate Measures from Maryland. Formed in Summer 2001 from the ashes of Gamewinner and No Justice, they have released a demo and the “It’s On Your Hands” 7”/MCD. Their music has been compared to Side By Side and with good reason. Currently they are writing new songs, playing out, and planning a winter tour.
2. Desperate Measures were a New Zealand answer to pop punk, a few years after the whole Sex Pistols thing, but they were fun and had a few good songs for all the punk posturing. They had a reasonably heavy following in their hometown of Christchurch, or it seemed so at the time. The band featured Eugene Butcher - Vocals (now doing something in multimedia in London where he has lived for 10 years), Eric Vandenhoven - Bass Guitar (now doing Chef things in Auckland, later of Evasive Action, Southern Front, Iceland, Champion Beat), Shane - Guitar (now runs an Auckland recording studio), Greg - Drums. The band managed to record and self release a 4 song EP 1984, as well as a live-to-multitrack set which ended up as the first Failsafe Records release, Wasted Again (a split with Unauthorised). As with many rough punk bands the Measures spawned a number of talented musicians, notably Eric Vandenhoven, whose inventive bass playing went on to encourage and influence many local musicians.
3. The Desperate Measures are an a capella group based at Marlboro College, Marlboro Vermont.
4. Murfreesboro, TN punk band who want to burn down the world. Touring all over the east summer 2010.
5. Hardcore band from Ohio who had a song on the Scene Report Comp, which was released in 2000 on Triple Crown Records.
