Third No. 1 Physical Single Targeted As New Track and Gig Announced By The Molotovs

by | Aug 29, 2025

The Molotovs are aiming for their third UK No. 1 physical single in a row with new track ‘Rhythm Of Yourself’.

 

The band, brother and sister Matt and Issey Carts, have also announced their biggest headline show to date at the Electric Ballroom in Camden, London, on 23rd October. Tickets go on sale at 5pm (Friday 29th August 2025) today.

 

‘Rhythm Of Yourself’, influenced by “early ‘80s stark Jam, Favourite Worst Nightmare era Arctic Monkeys and Sex Pistols”, will be released on Friday 31st October 2025 via Marshall Records.

 

With B-side ‘Johnny Don’t Be Scared’, it will be available on white vinyl as well as on digital streaming platforms.

 

Singer Matt said: “‘Rhythm Of Yourself’ is about people who try to take advantage of you because they think you’re young, vulnerable, and stupid. It is also a chant for individualism: dance to the rhythm of yourself, meaning don’t let people change you, don’t let anyone get in the way of your vision – and groove to the beat of your own drum.

 

“The verses tell the story of an older, cunning man presenting a contract to a young kid, promising him the world whilst trying desperately to change everything about him to satisfy his own needs. The chorus is a ‘sod all that’ type attitude which says to be your own man and do the best with what you’ve got.

“Musically, the influences are early ‘80s stark Jam, Favourite Worst Nightmare era Arctic Monkeys and Sex Pistols.”

 

‘Rhythm Of Yourself’ is the band’s third single after ‘More More More’ and ‘Today’s Gonna Be Our Day’, both of which hit the top of the physical singles charts. The Molotovs’ debut album, Wasted On Youth, is released on 31st January 2026 (Marshall Records).

 

Although Matt is still 17 and Issey 19, the band have learnt their craft on stage, playing more than 600 gigs since 2020. They’ve shared stages with the likes of Sex Pistols, Blondie and The Libertines – as well as being shouted out by Green Day and Paul Weller.

 

The Electric Ballroom show will follow a US tour in September and October supporting Sex Pistols and Frank Carter.

 

The 1,500-capacity Electric Ballroom is in Camden Town, at the heart of London’s music scene. It has hosted everyone from Joy Division and The Ramones to Kendrick Lamar, Billie Eilish and Prince.

Gay rights were hard fought for and hard won. Male homosexuality was not decriminalised in England until 1967. In many countries Lesbianism and Homosexuality remain illegal, and Lesbians are persecuted, sometimes murdered. Even though the fight for rights in this country was ultimately successful, that success is incredibly recent, and cannot be taken for granted.
