These tunes are taken from their 2007 Release "A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation" which I found to be quite an engaging listen with hints of early Who teenage angst woven in and out. Nothing too cerebral - strictly hormonal :-)Very refreshing.Murph, Dan and Tord met in 2003 while attending Paul McCartney's Liverpool Institute Of Performing Arts. They even received a music tutorial by Sir Paul...

So two gigs in a fucked up week, thankfully. Hooray for escapism, eh. ;)Anyway, the week started with a gig by The Wombats,supported by the Dutch band NeWax. Kudos to NeWax for getting the crowd all warmed up, and for their progression as well. Last time I saw them it was a bit too gimicky, now they really sounded good musically.But The Wombats. Lets get the cat out of the bag right away, The W...

The Wombats are clearly a tight bunch, judging by the tremendous thrill generated by Tord's second body hair ever. For more with the Wombats check out the link belowhttp://www.uncensoredinterview.com/artists/285-The-Wombats

The band started as a complete joke—one that they didn't want anyone to laugh at. "Like in The Office, when there's a dreadful silence," The Wombats said. "The idea of the band was to be stupid. We were just idiots." But this bunch of idiots—who claim that their fourth band member is a stuffed wombat named Cherub—happened to make some of the catchiest, care-free indie-pop in existence, all
