The Wombats played a sold out show at Rock City last Thursday evening, even now, four years on from the released of ‘A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation’ they still have managed to retain a predominately youthful fanbase. Already The Wombats have outlasted the shelf-life of most bands now-a-days and it is clear by the screams coming from the fans they will be around for a little while longer yet.
Their newest album ‘This Modern Glitch’ has infused some electronic elements but they still manage to retain their indie pop sound that first landed them in charts with early hits like ‘Kill The Director’ and ‘Moving to New York’.
Songs of the new album are really well received, especially the upcoming single ‘Our Perfect Disease’ and initial single and chart hit ‘Tokyo (Vampires & Wolves)’ but of course they finish their set with quite possibly the most well received song of the evening and their highest peaking single ‘Let’s Dance To Joy Division’
