DESIRE - Share new single & video "The Young & The Restless" - European tour next month  - Album 'Escape' out now via Italians Do It Better

With upcoming shows across Europe next month, Desire are back with their new video "The Young & The Restless" - the eighth visual from their Escape album, which came out earlier this year via Italians Do It Better.  In a foreshadowing glimpse into her crystal ball, Megan Louise simply says "Gone..." in the opening lyric. What more is there to really say sometimes? Drenched in the gauze of reverb, the track feels like disintegrated memories from a hazy dream. Originally composed by Barry De Vorzon & Perry Botkin Jr. for a film in 1971, it's best known as the instrumental theme song to the American soap opera of the same name; soundtracking the day time drama since 1973.  Desire's vocal version is bookended by the somber flutes of a Mellotron & the eerie warp of a String Machine on magnetic tape. As an out of tune player piano plays alone in the vacant lobby of a hotel, we see the blur of the afterlife flickering in a single candle. Theatrical melodrama, plot twists, & character themes unravel in the vanity of youth in "The Young & The Restless". Climaxing with a growling ensemble of synthesis, the instruments claw their way out of the grave. Watch & listen to "The Young & The Restless": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27WjtNpVNtA Desire is an electronic band formed in Montreal & currently based in Palm Springs. They make synth pop where film, fashion, & fantasy collide on the dancefloor. On stage, vocalist Megan Louise theatrically pivots between French & English while draped in latex from head to toe. From vixen to villain, she turns to predator with blood pumping thrill. Carrying the campy torch of Vaudeville into this century she is joined by composer Johnny Jewel (Chromatics, Glass Candy, Twin Peaks) on piano & drum machine.  See Desire live: November 2 : NIJMEGEN (Merleyn) - Tickets November 3 : AMSTERDAM (Tolhuistuin) - Tickets November 4 : BERLIN (Pitchfork - Zenner) - Tickets November 8 : PARIS (La Gaite Lyrique) - Tickets November 9 : LONDON (Pitchfork - Fabric) - Tickets Links: Desire Facebook Desire Twitter Desire Instagram Italians Do It Better website  Italians Do It Better Twitter
