Has anyone heard The WOMBATS new single 'Let's All Dance To Joy Division'? What do we think???

Their best yet???

 

Average Middle-of-the-road Indie band in my book, nothing to set themselves apart from the rest in my view.

The Wombats!

 

I am astonished that a thread hasn't been established for this British 3-piece indie rock band yet.

 

They really are an exciting Indie act that is about to drop Album #2 later this year. If you don't believe me that they are good, see the proof for yourself.

There's one from 2007!

Merged now and added to Band Index. :)

there's a reason a thread hasn't been established

i'm surprised they've made it to second album

nme loved them for three weeks and then everybody forgot about them

Yep those thousands at glasto definitely look like they'd forgotten about the band.

anybody can please a glasto crowd

they don't even bottle people off

Tokyo is pretty good, not as good as anything on their first album though! I am looking forward to the new album! :D

I'm moving to New York cus got problems with my sleeep! :dance:

 

They always played Moving to New York in a lot of London clubs so I love dancing to it! Wombats are alright tho. Nothing too serious, just more fun dance to party music if anything.

I liked This Is An Emergency.

Love the new track, looking forward to hearing more!!

That song is by 'The Pigeon Detectives' and I agree it is an AMAZING song! :D Brilliant live!

Haha, clever.

Like them, they're funny :) Lost in the Post is my favourite.

Oops my back, but then all those nme-hyped indie bands sound pretty similar :P

Their new single performed acoustically in Oz (they're over here touring atm)

I double-posted in my excitement...

Saw that. Seems an unusually long time away. They have it finished already.

^ Apparently they have to push it back for reasons outside their control. They had to push their entire UK tour back for that same reason, according to their facebook.

I'm listening to their new album for the second time and I went back and listened to their older stuff as well and I can't say that it's anything that grabs me. Too same-y to everything else that comes from the UK. Sorry.
