   About The Yards

Imperial Measures - The long awaited 2nd album from The Yards is released on March 21st on their own Industrial Erotica Records.

The album continues the themes and sound of their critically acclaimed debut with a fair few twists and turns along the way. You can buy the album for only £10 (plus p+p) from the link below.

Album including

Imperial Measures, released on Industrial Erotica Records, builds the bridges between the band's diverse influences and proves that behind the biting rock and all-out passion, there still lies a heady mix of melody, and heart-tugging romanticism in The Yards’ music. The band will be touring in support of the album and are currently booking dates around the country.

Bookings: contact Nicki at Funky Jam Promotions.
