Gene Gallagher\u2019s Villanelle<\/a> have announced the release date for their upcoming debut EP \u2018Measly Means\u2019, and dropped a new single called \u2018Placebo\u2019.<\/p>\n

The rising band kicked things off at the end of 2025 by sharing their first two tracks, the debut single \u2018Hinge<\/a>\u2019, and the hazy follow-up \u2018Measly Means<\/a>\u2019.<\/p>\n

Now, they have confirmed details of a full debut EP and released another new track called \u2018Placebo\u2019, which they describe as capturing \u201cheightened visualizations of post session anxiety\u201d.<\/p>\n

The song sees Villanelle continue their signature style of blending immersive sonic sections with catchy, instantly-recognisable hooks. Alongside Gallagher\u2019s distinctive, charismatic vocals, guitarist Ben Taylor and bassist Jack Schiavo create a wall of sound behind, drawing inspiration from grunge icons like Alice In Chains<\/a> and Soundgarden<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Combining distorted, intense guitars with the laid-back vocals, the band build towards the immense chorus: \u201cIt\u2019s that time\/ Don\u2019t let go\/ It\u2019s a lie\/ Placebo<\/em>\u201d. Check it out below.<\/p>\n
