The Boomtown Rats

In the Long Grass is the sixth studio album by the Irish rock band The Boomtown Rats, released in 1984 in the UK and 1985 in the US. The album was the band's last studio release for over three decades until 2020's Citizens of Boomtown.

In the Long Grass (1984/85) was indeed the Boomtown Rats' sixth studio album and their final one for 36 years, marking a significant gap before their 2020 comeback with Citizens of Boomtown, with singles like "Dave" and "Drag Me Down" from In the Long Grass, an album notable for its production touches and as the last with keyboardist Johnnie Fingers before the band's hiatus.
