“The four of us have decided, for our own reasons and in our own ways, that it is now time to leave this orbit.” That is one way to announce the breakup of a band. ["Click" the above letter to enlarge.] A more shocking way is to make the statement while releasing music with the strength of “Punk Drunk & Trembling.” It’s similar to a professional athlete retiring while having a strong season.
The members of Wild Beasts are moving in separate directions, assuming there isn’t a change of heart. “Punk Drunk & Trembling” is their swan song. It is one of three tracks on an EP that will be released October 20. Fittingly, “Punk Drunk & Trembling” asks “What can be said?” and tells us “What’s done is done.”
Wild Beasts are Hayden Thorpe (guitar, falsetto vocals), Benny Little (guitar), Chris Talbot (percussion, baritone vocals), and Tom Fleming (bass, tenor vocals).

“Punk Drunk & Trembling” by Wild Beasts
As if we ever need reason
And miracles are known to happen
We’re burning up the oxygen
Coming up for air
It’s about to happen
What can be said?
Why speak?
Why dry the tongue?
What's done is done
What's done is done
What can be said?
Why speak?
Why dry the tongue?
What's done is done
You’ve got me punk drunk, trembling
I’m moving to the space you’re in
You’ve got me punk drunk, terrified
I’m moving towards you
And miracles are bound to happen
What can be said?
Why speak?
Why dry the tongue?
What's done is done
What's done is done
What can be said?
Why speak?
Why dry the tongue?
What's done is done
You’ve got me punk drunk, trembling
I’m moving to the space you’re in
You’ve got me punk drunk, terrified
I’m moving towards
What can be said?
Why speak?
Why dry the tongue?
What's done is done
What's done is done
What can be said?
Why speak?
Why dry the tongue?
What's done is done
You’ve got me punk drunk, trembling
I’m moving to the space you’re in
You’ve got me punk drunk, terrified
I move towards you
[Repeat]
A miracle is about to happen
